Assess the Applicability of Modern Leadership Theory

Develop a critical analysis of the applicability of modern leadership theories (transformational, servant, ethical, and charismatic theories) to current leadership situations. The goal is to effectively critique these leadership styles, beginning with an overview of the transition from historical leadership theories (Great Man, trait, behavioral, contingency, and transactional) to the modern styles, followed by an analysis of their applicability to professional situations you have experienced or read about in the news.

Support your analysis with at least seven scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.
