This week’s discussion focuses on the following:

Burnes, Hughes, and By (2016) [required reading] suggested that “despite three decades of transformation and change leadership discourse, leadership is still in crisis” (p. 8). Burnes, Hughes, and By proposed that to meet current phenomenological challenges, a utilitarian consequential approach is in order. In short, leaders would be judged on results of change rather than the intent, and leader decisions would be more in line with the sustainability movement.

To prepare for the discussion, answer the following questions:

• What is the dominant leadership discourse--from Western’s (2013) four discourses--in your chosen organization?
• How did you reach your conclusions?  Provide 2 scholar sources to support your response APA style.
