Based on your readings, describe and develop an overview of two public leaders—one male and one female—that embody your ideal of a public leader and the leadership theories and styles that they manifest.

W. de Klerk in facilitating change, recognizing diversity, and leading courageously. Discuss gender diversity in the workplace, including the increasing numbers of women in the workplace and leadership positions. If you've ever had a leader of another gender, discuss the pros and cons of your experience. Suggest one key strength or weakness that could influence your ability to be a public leader. Include at least four peer-reviewed references (at least one must be no more than 3 months old) from material outside the textbook.
