**Instructions**
**Part A**
**This assignment was done all wrong. The writer did not put in any of the examples of a leader. You have to name a leader in your life who fit one of the six leadership styles below in bold. That person can be anyone, that fits that leader style. You will have to state why you think they are this leadership style. It will be a total of 6 leaders, that include anyone from Nelson Mandela or anyone who has been a leader of one of these styles. You can add parts of what was written below to make it more than 800 words.**
The concept of Daniel Goleman of the six leadership styles that is
**coaching, visionary, affiliative, democratic, commanding and pace setting**, all show that for one to be an effective leader, one requires to be emotionally intelligent and also be able to adapt easily. Each style emerges from different emotional competencies and has distinct effects on organizational climate and performance.
The visionary leader will inspire with a collective purpose. This is a very successful style in the process of change or crisis since it brings the people aligned to the long-term objectives. It is the task of a coaching leader to identify the strengths of the individuals and to develop them with the help of feedback and mentoring, which helps them to create trust and loyalty. The affiliative style encourages peace, focusing on emotional attachment and cooperation; the style is especially effective in restoring a divided relationship or boosting the spirit. In the meantime, the democratic style encourages involvement where the team members are allowed to express themselves, and make their contribution to the decision. These four styles, visionary, coaching, affiliative, democratic styles, generate good resonance, which increases motivation and creativity.
I like the idea of a visionary leader because this type of leader is one of the main styles that the military uses, especially when it comes down to offering positive leadership for newly and young troops. When I was a young troop, I looked to visionary leaders because they were the ones who helped me grow in my career.
The commanding and pacesetting styles should be cautiously implemented. The pacesetting leader will have high standards and demand excellence which can spur performance but will lead to burnout or anxiety when it is excessively applied. The leader with command, who acts like a director in the army, will want things done as he orders them, and this may work in times of crisis, but may have long-lasting adverse effects on morale. The commanding leadership is one that is highly used in the military, but at times, it can be quite concerning when you have a leader who does not understand how to command and lead both at the same time. While I have used commanding and the visionary approach, I prefer the visionary approach over the commanding approach, at this time in my career.

Module 4: Discussion
Instructions
In each module, you will have the opportunity to participate in an online discussion forum.
This week, there is only one basic prompt that you need to address, followed by at least three response posts. Do take this as an opportunity to connect to a few of your classmates — maybe to folks who you have not chatted with at this point.
**_Hot Tip:_** _It might be helpful to copy-paste the discussion prompts into an offline document (Word, for example), compose your responses offline, and then return to copy-paste your responses here._
**NOTE:** _Please include each discussion prompt prior to your responses — or use topical headings or numbers to make it easy for readers to see that you’ve covered all of the prompts/items._
This Discussion exercise is basically a "check-in" exercise — an open prompt. That is, when you reflect on the contents of the module (the chapters read in
_Primal Leadership_ including Boyatzis's Theory of Self-Directed Learning [Intentional Change Theory] — and the prompts that you moved through in Critical Thinking/Application Prompts exercise), what is something that stood out to you this week? What is something that was muddy? Did you have any "aha" moments? Share here.
**Write at least 300 words.** (Word counts are minimums – do feel free to exceed.)
