Leadership Of 3 CEOs
Learning Goal
The focus of our paper initially was self-leadership. However, after researching that topic we found it to be much too vague and simply not interesting. We decided to pick a much more specific topic pertaining to leadership that would allow us to learn on our own. After some research we found an interesting topic entitled ?tips from the top.? The title simply indicates that we will look at leadership styles of three top CEOs of major companies and elaborate on what makes them effective and also incorporate theories taught in class.
The self-directed learning that our group wanted to focus on deals with real world examples of leadership. We wanted to see the way three CEOs lead their company into the future (by vicariously learning from examples in the real world). While observing their individual styles, we will elaborate on leadership theories taught in class with life examples, but also mention possible underlying characteristics that helped these people rise to the top. The three CEOs that we will look at are Carly Fiorina of Hewlett-Packard Co., Michael Dell of Dell Computers, and August Busch III of Anheuser Busch Co. All of these CEOs are similar in
