Address the following in your paper:

Provide examples of leadership versus management activities for each of the five areas crucial to organizational performance.

  • Direction
  • Alignment
  • Relationships
  • Personal Qualities
  • Outcomes
  • Include your own examples, thoughts and experiences in your discussion.

  • No more than 20% of your content/information may come from references.
  • Use at least three references from outside the course material, one reference must be from EBSCOhost. Text book, lectures, and other materials in the course may be used, but are not counted toward the three reference requirement.
  • Cite all reference material (data, dates, graphs, quotes, paraphrased words, values, etc.) in the paper and list on a reference page in APA style.
