LEADERSHIP ANALYSIS
Regardless of your business strategies, flawless execution and implementation is reliant on the leadership of your
organization. As the Assistant Director of Talent Development, you have been charged with analyzing a front line
leader.
1. Develop a clear picture of the skills, knowledge, experience, and personality attributes your leader needs
in order to excel in your organization and culture. Refer to readings, podcasts, or other external research
on this topic.
2. Identify a leader in your workplace to interview. It should be an individual who has been in a leadership
position for a minimum of two years. It is important to focus on both the individualâ€s overall concept of
leadership, standards for how that general view ought to be implemented, and the respondentâ€s
recollection of a specific incident when the concepts were applied. Use any of the theoretical frames in
your readings to guide the inquiry process. (Ethics, Decision Making, Motivation, Power and Politics,
Communication and Key leadership traits, styles and behaviors).
3. If you are not familiar with the process of conducting interviews, review any book on qualitative
research that contains information regarding basic techniques for conducting interviews. There are also
some Websites that might help you to get started:

4. Organize your interview beforehand.
5. Interview your selected leader.
6. Analyze the results of the interview.
Based on the skills, knowledge, experience, and personality attributes your leaders need to excel in your
organization outlined in step one and the results of the interview, write a report, to be submitted to your boss, The
VP of Talent Management, outlining the gap between actual and desired performance. The report should include an
introduction of the selected leader, a clear picture of the skills, knowledge and experience of the selected leader, a
conclusion and recommendations for improvement, as well as an appendix that has a copy of the interview
questions.
I work for Verizon, so something geared towards a call center would be applicable.
