  1. Write down the names of three (3) people who have significantly impacted you and explain the role they play in your life.
  2. For each name, identify a total of three to five (3 - 5) attributes (i.e., skills, traits, qualities, and/or approaches) that they demonstrated that had a positive impact on you (e.g., good communicator, friendly, patient).
  3. Review the list and determine whether the actions were predominantly management- oriented in nature or leadership-oriented (i.e., identify with an 'M' or 'L'). Here, think back to the leader-manager discussion in week 1 and to the readings and discussion of managers vs. Leaders.
  4. Focus on those that you identified as predominantly Leadership attributes ('L').
  5. Beside each of your noted Leadership attributes, identify whether each Leadership attribute was more predominantly related to his or her: (a) 'Head' (e.g., knowledge, etc.); (b) 'Heart' (e.g., relationship with you, respectfulness, ability to empower or motivate, etc.); or (c) 'Hands' (e.g., action, approach, behaviour, etc.).

Provide the above information in a table as follows.

3. Provide a brief description of each person and explain why you chose them as being particularly impactful.

5. What does this tell you about what you need, value, or benefit from in terms of leadership -- both yours and others'?
