Module 3 – SLP
CHANGE-ORIENTED LEADERSHIP: TRANSFORMATIONAL AND CHARISMATIC LEADERS
For the Module 3 SLP assignment, you will apply the concepts from the background materials to your own personal experiences. You can write about the same supervisor you wrote about in Modules 1 and 2, or choose a different supervisor that you worked with and got to know well.

Carefully review the concepts and definitions of charismatic, transformational, and transactional leadership. Then write a 2- to 3-page paper and include at least two scholarly sources addressing the following issues using specific examples from your personal experiences:

Describe a situation you experienced in the workplace when a current or past supervisor used a transformational or charismatic approach to motivate their employees. Was it effective?
Describe a situation you experienced in the workplace when a current or past supervisor used a transactional approach to motivate their employees. Was it effective?
Based on what you’ve read for this class so far as well as from your own experience working with different supervisors, Which approach, transformational, charismatic, or transactional leadership is more effective as a leadership style in your organization?
To support your answers, use both of the following: your personal experiences and at least scholarly sources from the required or optional readings list.
