Option #2: Leadership Analysis Presentation

For this Portfolio Project presentation, you will choose two well-known leaders in different countries and cultures (for example, a leader from the United States and a leader from China). You will compare these two leaders in terms of their leadership styles, their methods for gaining power and influence, and their success and effectiveness as a leader.

The entire portfolio project is worth 35% of your overall grade for this course. Make sure to use research to back up your statements within the paper. You will need to address each of the following as they relate to your two leaders. Each question is worth equal value.
