· Select two leaders (from the U.S. or international) who you consider to be examples of transactional and transformational leadership.

· Conduct independent research on these individuals and create a profile that addresses the following:

o What makes one leader transactional and the other transformational?

o What added value does each bring to their organizations?

o What conditions and organizational contingencies influence whether a transactional or transformational leadership style would be most effective?

o Considering your answer above, compare the effectiveness of both leaders you profiled in their given environments. Was their leadership style appropriate?
