Choose three assessments to complete. After completing them, explain your findings by providing 2-3 sentences for each assessment. Reflect on what the results say about you and how they describe how you function on teams. MGT 410 Topic 2 DQ 1 Review the seven different emphases of servant leadership in Chapter 3 of the textbook. Which emphasis was most divergent from your view about servant leadership and which was most convergent? Explain your response. MGT 410 Topic 2 DQ 2 You just completed the first topic in your PSC-410 or MGT-410 class. You are excited about what you have learned so far. You try to share your excitement with your supervisor and tell him/her you are taking a servant leadership class. His/her response is, “Servant leadership is overrated. You can’t get any real work done that way, you know. Coddling people and being a soft leader will not get you very far.” You brush off the remark but decide to revisit the subject with him/her later because you believe he/she has the wrong view about servant leadership. How do you think you would approach your supervisor on the subject? What should you say? MGT 410 Topic 3 DQ 1 Review the discussion on the concept of service and leadership in four religious traditions. What similarities and differences do you see across the four religious traditions?

Identify at least two culturally specific variables that impede the adoption of servant leadership within one specific cultural perspective. If you were transferred to that country to work, fully aware that you would encounter those impediments, how do you think they could best be overcome in order to enable servant leadership to be implemented in a culturally-compatible manner?

If you revise an existing model, be sure to credit the original source.

3. Once you have created your model, compose a brief analysis (500 words) that addresses the following: 1. What are the unique characteristics of servant leadership and how do these elements make it different from other leadership models? 2. Define the paradox of servant leadership, and explain where you see this paradox present in your own representation. 3. Based on your understanding of effective leadership, how do you think your representation captures those qualities or characteristics necessary to lead effectively? Submit the graphic of your model with the written analysis. APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected. This assignment uses a rubric.

Greenleaf as you complete the service project: "The difference manifests itself in the care taken by the servant-first to make sure that other people's highest priority needs are being served. The best test, and difficult to administer, is: Do those served grow as persons? Do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants? And, what is the effect on the least privileged in society? Will they benefit or at least not be further deprived." APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected. You are not required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. MGT 410 Topic 3 Servant Leadership in Diverse Contexts While servant leadership is often associated with Christianity and the Bible, one could argue that it is compatible with most religions and philosophies and that it transcends cultures. This assignment presents you with an opportunity to explore other cultures, philosophies, and religions and asks you to think critically about how servant leadership practices are apparent in other religions and cultures. Select one cultural context. Also select one religious viewpoint. You may not select Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, or Christianity, including any of its denominations or traditions such as Eastern Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism. Examine how the principles of servant leadership are evident in that chosen culture and in that chosen religion. In an essay (1,250-1,500 words), identify similarities and differences between servant leadership’s philosophies and the values evident in the selected cultural context and religious viewpoint. Be sure to provide specific examples of practices and/or values in your discussion.
