Leadership Analysis

/in /by

Option #1: Leadership Analysis Paper

For this Portfolio Project paper, you will choose two leaders, one male and one female. These two leaders do not need to be from the same organization. One leader should be what you would consider “effective and successful” and the other should be what you would consider “ineffective and unsuccessful.”

Compare these two leaders regarding their leadership characteristics, use of power and influence, and how these relate to their effectiveness or lack of effectiveness within their respective organization.

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 element is worth equal value.

Instructions:

  • A brief background and organizational framework for each leader, including job title and general description, industry in which they work, number of subordinates they supervise, and their leadership level within the organization (lower level, middle level, executive level)
  • A comparison of the techniques used by each leader to gain power in his or her role within the organization
  • A comparison of how subordinates relate to each leader, including how much influence the subordinates have on each leader
  • An analysis of how each leader uses influence to change the behavior of other leaders, co-workers, and subordinates within the organization
  • A comparison of the techniques used by each leader to influence employee motivation
  • An analysis of self-destructive tendencies (dark characteristics) of each leader, and how these tendencies affect the organization
  • A comparison of how each leader rewards employees, and how effective the reward systems are
  • An analysis of which leadership theory best describes each leader and the reasons why you selected the leadership theory based on research

Requirements:

  • Your paper must be 8 pages in length, not counting the required title, abstract (Links to an external site.), and reference pages.
  • You must back up your analysis with at least six references not used as required or recommended readings in this course. The CSU Global Library is a good place to find these sources. You may also use additional credible sources including newspapers, trade journals, government reports, and white papers. You may not use Wikipedia in any CSU Global course. You may use course required or recommended readings as additional sources over the required six references.
  • Include a cover page denoting the paper title, your name, the course number and name, your instructor’s name, and the date you are making the submission.
  • Include an outline or table of contents.

Understanding foreign Exchange Risks.

/in /by
Write a 250–500 word analysis in which you examine the issue of currency exchange and the risks associated with changes in the exchange rate.

Fluctuations in currency exchange rates can have significant effects on business costs, asset values, and profitability. Therefore, it is important for managers to be familiar with exchange rates and currency considerations and to understand the risks involved in currency exchange.

SHOW LESS

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

  • Competency 4: Assess the feasibility of business operation in other countries.
    • Analyze the exchange-rate-based value of selling goods in the United States exported from a different country.
    • Explain how changes in the exchange rate would affect profitability for exports from a different country to the United States.
    • Identify risks related to changes in the exchange rate from a management perspective.

Given the very wide range of complex topics associated with globalization, the issue of monetary systems might seem small. However, as is readily apparent, it can have a dramatic impact on a company’s operational and financial success, and thus is actually a vital topic.

SHOW LESS

Consider a U.S. business manager involved with a supplier in Argentina. At present, the inflation rate in the United States is relatively low, while the inflation rate (at least the unofficial and more widely accepted rate) is fairly high. If the U.S. business manager negotiates a contract to purchase products from Argentina in pesos (at prevailing prices in Argentina), the U.S. business will likely be impacted by inflation, since the price paid for the products would increase faster than in the United States. By contrast, if the U.S. business manager negotiates contracts to be paid in U.S. dollars (at prevailing prices in the United States), the U.S. business might be more insulated from Argentina’s inflation. However, the supplier in Argentina might perceive that as unfair, since they could potentially sell their product within Argentina at prices increasing more rapidly.

As a more extreme example, also using Argentina to illustrate the point, Argentina for many years had their peso tied 1:1 to the U.S. dollar. That turned out to be unsustainable (contributing to a financial crisis in Argentina in 2001), and Argentina had to abruptly remove that tie and let the peso float on the international market. That abrupt change caused massive issues for businesses located within Argentina, as well as for foreign companies doing business in Argentina. As an example, depending on how various contracts were set up, some businesses faced an overnight quadrupling of prices.

Complete the following:

  1. Examine the concept of the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. Choose a Japanese company, such as Toyota, Canon, or Mitsubishi, and identify a strategy that the company might consider to reduce its currency exchange risk associated with Japanese and U.S. currencies.
  2. Write an analysis in which you include the following:
    1. Identify the exchange rate of the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar.
    2. Discuss the resulting value of selling goods in the United States exported from Japan.
    3. Explain how weekly changes in the exchange rate would affect profitability for exports from Japan to the United States.
    4. Identify risks related to changes in the exchange rate from a management perspective.
  3. Support your analysis with references from the Capella University Library, globalEDGE, or other Internet sources.
