Question Description: Within the Discussion Board area, write 300-600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, using examples to reinforce your ideas. Conduct research on the subject matter and provide at least three scholarly resources as references with corresponding citations meeting APA standards.

Is there one right way to lead? Research suggests there is no one right way. Leadership development programs generally teach a best-practices model, but experts suggest that individuals trained in leadership techniques that are contrary to their own nature risk losing the authenticity that is crucial to effective leadership. Review the following:

Chapter 12 of the textbook
Where do the leadership challenges of the 21st century exist?
What is the Leadership Challenge?
Can anyone become the leader of an organization and succeed? There are those who believe that leadership training is an effective method of transforming people into leaders while others posit that its part of your being and thus are born with the appropriate leadership traits to make an organization or nation state viable. Many companies conduct management training with a component of leadership embedded in the curriculum but how can leadership be best taught if, at all. This discussion will challenge our personal paradigms on this topic with focus on best methods as well as best theories for the right circumstances.

Given that there are multiple perspectives of the leadership challenges and how to develop our leadership practices, discuss the following:

From your experiences, what is the best theory/method for leading people into achieving a learning organization that evolves with the changing environment? (Chapter 12 or your textbook).
Should leadership techniques be taught, provide practical strategies we can use, and if it should be taught discuss experiential vs. didactic methods. (Use the CTU Library, ProQuest search engine on the topic of experiential vs. didactic methods.).
Are leaders born or made and how does your research on this topic impact leadership development within organizations? (Use the CTU Library, ProQuest search engine on the topic of leaders being born or made.)
