The inside story of Obama and Boehner’s second failed grand bargain
Read the following account of the failed “Grand Bargain” of 2011:
Source: Newton-Small, J. (2011, July 23). The inside story of Obama and Boehner’s second failed grand bargain. Retrieved from http://swampland.time.com/2011/07/23/the-inside-story-of-obama-and-boehners-second-failed-grand-bargain/
After you have completed reading the above-cited article, write an essay discussing the various leadership theories implied by the article. Specifically, you should identify three leaders in the article and discuss a leadership approach/style that would move each of those three leaders close toward a so-called “grand bargain.”
No approach/style will be a cure-all, so you need to use your best judgment from all you have learned in the previous units. Be sure to identify the historical context and associated practices of each leadership approach/style/theory discussed. Also, use specific examples when making a point. Your essay should be grounded in the facts of the article, as well as the readings.
