Kyle is grateful for your feedback from last week. He decided not to send out the memo. He$$s been thinking about your suggestions, and he$$s ready to test new ways of thinking about how he approaches others. Kyle self$-$identified that his leadership style and behaviors needed improvement. So he enrolled in a two$-$day conference aimed at improving his effectiveness. Upon returning from the conference, Kyle summoned his senior management team for a $6$ a$.$m$.$ meeting on Monday. His goal was to $$help them start their day off right,$$ and he provided them with the following agenda:

Describe your weaknesses.

Explain why you are not effective.

Tell me your highest aspiration.

How can you be more productive?

What can you do to improve how you interact and engage with others?

Included in the agenda was a requirement to submit a $10-$page research paper on what it means to be a leader. At the end of the meeting Kyle outlined his expectations for developing teams within the organization. Specifically, he insisted on attending all team meetings so that he could observe and direct each member.

Identify and explain at least three mis$-$steps Kyle took. Incorporate course materials in your response.

Advise Kyle on a more appropriate approach to leading others, specifically in a team environment.
