Triarchic theory of intelligence

Reference no: EM13936057

Question1

a) The Triarchic Theory of Intelligence describes three kinds of intelligence: Analytical, Practical and Creative. Explain the essence of this theory and give examples of each (from your memory or imagination not the textbook) of these types of intelligence and say how each is important to leadership. Identify any criticisms you may have of this theory and/or strengths of such a model.

b) Emotional Intelligence (EI) was described by Aberman as "the degree to which thoughts and feelings are aligned" (as cited in Hughes, Ginnett & Curphy 2015, pp. 2211 ). Using examples from your own behaviour and experience in leadership, discuss what you think he means and why this might be important. For extra marks, compare this take on EI to other perspectives. Identify which model you personally favour and why.

Question 2

a) Using your organisation or an organisation you are very familiar with, use the Interaction Model of Leadership to explain how the current organisational culture developed. Use specific examples to support your conclusions.

b) Your textbook refers to Cameron and Quinn's Competing Values Framework. Use Cameron and Quinn's model to evaluate what type of organisational culture exists in the organisation chosen in part (a). Provide specific examples to support your conclusion.

Question 3

Leadership is not only a science and an art, but also has rational and emotional properties. Using concrete examples (descriptions of actual incidents) from your own leadership, and/or leadership you have personally observed, discuss and evaluate these claims. Use as much theory as you can to show you can analyse the leadership behaviour process in terms of the theories and concepts in the unit.

Question 4

After benefiting from this subject and based on what you now know about Leadership theory, develop a detailed plan that maps out your own future Leadership Development Plan. In your plan you should identify what organisational provisions are currently available to you.
