Walden University Situation Leadership Survey discussion

Humanities

Assignment: Situation Leadership Survey

Reflect on the project team you considered in this week’s Discussion. Imagine you have brought the team together to discuss the project’s phases. As the project team manager, you have assessed your team members’ varying skillsets. Some of your team members are very motivated but could use some coaching and light training to be able to accomplish their individual project responsibilities. Other team members have a high level of skills but might need a little motivation to get started because of their workload. Still others have a great deal of experience and skills and are highly motivated. You would not likely need to manage your entire team in the same way.

To prepare for this Assignment, go to the “Situational Leadership Exercise” in your course text, Leadership: Theory and Practice. Complete the exercise and be as honest and objective as you can. Keep your scores on the exercise for analysis in the Final Research Paper

Write a 1- to 2-page paper describing your experience with the “Situational Leadership Exercise.” Analyze how your questionnaire responses indicate your personal leadership philosophy. Describe any questionnaire results that may have surprised you. Analyze the impact that the characteristics of the Situational Approach to Leadership might have on your personal leadership style. Explain how the Situational Approach might help you become a more effective leader.

Zoot Suit, ​answer just one of the two questions below in a paragraph or more, and then include the REFLECTION

Writing

Answer just one of the two questions below in a paragraph or more, and then include the REFLECTION (another paragraph or more) described below them. The first two questions take a comparative race & ethnicity approach to the zoot suit youth culture by looking at the larger social and cultural conditions experienced by young people of color in the U.S. in the early and mid-20th Century. The third question provides a space for students to be creative and share their experiences of participating in a youth culture.

  1. According to Luis Alvarez, what is the social context or connection between African-Americans and Mexican-Americans adopting the zoot suit style in the early 1940s and the idea of having a sense of dignity? In other words, what were the social conditions that influenced their decision to express themselves in this manner, through what Alvarez calls “body politics”?
  2. According to Catherine S. Ramirez, what was the significance for young Mexican-American women in the 1940s in dressing as a “pachuca” and being out in public? What were the specific social and cultural barriers that they confronted both outside their communities and within them?

REFLECTION: Based on which question you chose to answer, how does what you’ve learned about the Zoot Suit youth culture differ from or present a different perspective than what you may be familiar with from what you were taught in high school or from old Hollywood moves and American pop culture, i.e. swing music, Who Framed Roger Rabbit? The Mask, etc. Do you see any parallels between the histories of the youth cultures of the 1940s and the youth cultures and lived experiences of young people in the U.S. today?
