Leadership Studies Resource Guide

This program filmed at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley, brings together Carly Fiorina, chairman and CEO of Hewlett-Packard, and John Chambers, president and CEO of Cisco Systems, to confront the challenges of leadership during times of change.

This program investigates ways in which facial expressions and nonverbal communication determine political charisma and power. Presenting examples from a wide range of historical and current sources, the film shows how psychologists diagram and analyze media images of politicians.

Viewers learn how styles of leadership differ, skills that make a good leader, how to assess their own leadership potential, and much more.

A discussion with motivational speaker Dr. Verna Price is teamed with compelling vignettes in this program that delves into the topic of personal leadership potential. Explaining the difference between personal and positional leadership and the difference between a true leader and someone just seeking attention, she guides students through an exploration of their inner strengths so that they are equipped to make good choices and wise decisions. The video challenges young viewers to think positively about their ability to influence, to create change, and to be leaders first in their own lives if not in the world.
