Leadership Training Exercise

While watching the first video lecture of the Inspiring Leadership through Emotional Intelligence online course on Coursera by Richard Boyatzis, I came across an interesting exercise that can be used during leadership training. The exercise loosely goes something like this:
  1. Ask participants to think of two managers they have had in the past, one good and one bad then write each one's name on a piece of paper.
  2. Under the name of each manager, ask participants to write his or her qualities and what he or she used to do.
  3. Reflect on the good and bad lists written by participants.
