Question leadership

Heuristics are a set of guidelines that people use to direct their activities. We all have a variety of heuristics in our lives, either formal or informal. A formal business heuristic might be a reorder point (trigger point) for reordering supplies like lumber, paper clips, or cans of broccoli at work. An informal personal heuristic might be how much drive time you allow for when you travel to work.

Develop as a group a set of heuristics for your practice of leadership, strategic thinking, and planning. Have at least twenty-five items, although you may certainly have more. Your heuristics can include but are not limited to:

– Things you would do.

– Things you would not do.

– An ethical framework for the practice of strategic leadership.

– Observations about the effectiveness of styles of leadership as they apply to topics related

to strategy, leadership, and planning.

– Other insights about successful or unsuccessful strategic leadership.

At least some of your items should be devoted to particular topics or subtopics within or associated with leadership
