Real Communication An Introduction

302 Part 3  Group and Organizational Communication

3. Create a chart that lists the four leadership styles described in this chapter
   (directive, participative, supportive, and achievement oriented). Evaluate the
   leaders of each of the different groups in which you participate—your boss at
   work, your professors, your resident assistant in the dorm—in terms of their
   leadership style. Where do they fall on your chart? Do some fit more than one
   category? Do some fit none of the categories?


4. Select a city, state, or campus problem that is relevant to the members of your
   class. Form a group to solve the problem using the six-step decision-making
   process described in this chapter.
