Assignment

Select someone in a leadership position at your organization or at a local company where you might seek employment. This individual could be a director, manager, supervisor, or CEO of the organization.

View the video in the Phoenix Career Guidance System (Milestone 7.8-Do informational interviews) for tips on interviewing a potential employer through an investigative interview.

Interview an individual who has a leadership role.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word profile of the individual that you interviewed for your company's newsletter, and include the following:

• Identify the individual and their position within the company, and briefly describe the organization.

• Interpret the individual's leadership style based on the Five-Factor personality model, and offer one or more examples of the management and leadership roles of this individual.

• Explain one incident where this individual had to solve a difficult problem or situation because things did not go as planned.

• Describe the lessons that she/he learned from being able to problem solve, even when what she/he had been taught did not work.

Format your profile consistent with the newsletter template (formats may vary depending upon company's style; check internet or Microsoft® Word for templates).
