Female Leader Interview Takeaway Essay

 

Interview instructions:

I am having a women leadership course, during this week, we learned about crucial competencies for women success. “Four specific traits are critical to women’s success: courage, risk-taking, resilience, and the ability to manage ambiguity.”

Have a conversation with a female leader who you know has demonstrated one or more of the competencies discussed in this lesson. Conduct a brief informational interview with her, asking the following questions to ascertain how she acquired these competencies, how she uses them now, and to what advantages:

  1. How did you come to know that this particular competency was important to your leadership and that it needed work on your part?
  2. What specific steps did you take to develop that competency to an effective level?
  3. How do you now utilize or demonstrate this competency? In what situations and in what ways?
  4. What impact do you experience when you use this competency?

The assignment:

Pretend that you did an interview with a female leader (university professor for example) regarding the three questions above. After that, write a brief essay (500 to 750 words) that highlights your biggest takeaways from this interview. Specifically, answer the question “What did you learn from this interview that you can directly apply to your own leadership?”
