University of North Dakota Coach Carter Leadership Summary
Description
For this assignment you should watch a movie, or re-watch a movie you remember seeing in the past. In any number of movies I can think of there is a leader who, by articulating a vision and a challenge to others to see it happen, convinces followers to join them in trying to achieve something. The leader then organizes the activities and motivates followers to help the entire organization achieve the vision. There are plenty of sports movies (e.g., Coach Carter, Remember the Titans), action movies (Oceans 11, The Italian Job), and animated movies (e.g., Toy Story, A Bugs Life), where some leader(s) create a compelling vision for others to follow and lead others to success. In the paper, take 500=750 words to describe the basic plot of the movie (in your own words!). Then, for the rest of the paper, using some of the terms and ideas described in the chapters, explain how the leader(s) contributed to success. Be sure to reference both the movie, and sections of the textbook chapters you refer to. Feel free to use other sources of information to further understand and describe theories. For example, the Path-Goal Theory may be a very powerful concept for understanding a particular leader’s success, but since this is covered in less than one page in the text book, it may be necessary to access a few more sources to fully apply this theory.
