Due to the topic of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethis assignment and the huge possibilities embedded within, I found it quite challenging at the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ebeginning to find an appropriate example of a leader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the end I decided to write this case about someone, who is well known, controversially\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ediscussed and not only a person but also a personality ¿ Vladimir Putin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA man who is not certain where to look about, rather shy, on the right hand side of this 187\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecm giant Boris Jelzin. Vladimir Putin¿s posture is hesitant and observant. This picture was\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003etaken 9 years ago in 1999. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this assignment we will learn who he was, who he became and who he is and what impact\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ehe had on his country - Russia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe key data for Russia are amazing. One can conclude from the size (17.075.400 square\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ekilometres with 142.400.000 inhabitants with eleven time zones) of the country, the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ebillionaires and the poor, the history and power of this state, that a lot can be achieved ¿ for\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe good or for the worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf we have a short look at the recent political history of Russia before Putin was elected\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003epresident, we are faced with Boris Jelzin. A great man in size, but weak in politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cultural history which emerged throughout the last decades is assertiveness - almost\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eaggressiveness ¿ an effective way to work oneself up the social ladder. Another trade is the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ein-group collectivism and gender egalitarianism. (page 310, Leadership ¿ Theory and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePractice, Peter G. Northouse, SAGE). Especially the trait of in-group collectivism will be a\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003enecessary stepping-stone for Putin¿s career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePutin's well-calculated steps, from the beginning of his political career to the peak of his carrer is described and shows who is pulling the strings behind the political stage of Russia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis leadership style is analysed against various leadership theories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe recent events (May 2008) support the trend which is analysed in this case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783638944564\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrom Secret Service to World Power\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783638944564","offer_id":58965680619845,"sku":"9783638944564","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/73461_d7676a81-6b1c-4fa4-8a3f-ff7f8d585399.jpg?v=1787460536","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/wladimir-putin-leadership-von-christine-wischlitzki","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
