The purpose of this assignment is for you to learn firsthand what it takes to be an effective leader. You are to learn what the roles, functions, challenges, and benefits are in leadership. Make sure to identify a person whom you admire as a leader. You'll first need to conduct an interview of your chosen leader before you create the presentation video for the assignment. This assignment aligns with module outcome 3.

During this assignment, you will be able to:
identify an individual who is a leader
create, implement, and practice an interview
describe the characteristics and role that makes this person an effective leader

Conduct an Interview:
Interview a leader from your organization or local community. Suitable candidates could include a supervisor or former supervisor you respect, a coach, a person of authority in a volunteer organization like the PTA or athletic organization, etc. You will not be video recording this interview, but please take good notes because you will be using this information later.

Create a list of questions based on the readings you have engaged with thus far. You should include approximately ten questions that get at what makes this person an effective leader (characteristics, roles, functions, challenges, and benefits).
