EXAMPLE: Review Exhibit 12.1 on page 405 of your text: Managers Vs. Leaders. It is also listed below for your convenience. Which bullet points in the “Managers” circle apply to you and why?
Example answer: In reviewing Exhibit 12.1, the bullets that I feel apply to me are 1) do things right and 2) problem solving. In my work, I always want to do the right thing. Sometimes it may affect others in a negative way. But, if it’s the right thing to do, they’ll understand. I’m also a very good problem solver. I love being tasked with something and looking through data, reports, and pulling new reports to try and find the answer. When I do find it, it feels really good. It’s as if I have something tangible I can hold in my hand.
