The terms management and leadership have been used in various ways: from being equivalent, to holding completely different meanings. Some may say that leadership does not require any managerial position to act as a leader, whilst others believe that a true manager is the one with leadership traits. In the light of your studies so far, and with the support of academic literature as well as your own professional, and personal, experience, discuss the following:

Question 1:
Key similarities and differences between leadership and management.
Question 2:
Briefly analyse the culture of the organisation you work for or have worked for previously; you can also select an organisation you know well, in particular:
2a) How far does the prevailing organisational culture affect the way the organisation interacts with its employees, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders?
2b) Can you identify any leadership principles that support organisational values in your chosen origination?

A good discussion should evidence excellent academic and practical application, a solid evaluation and critical analysis.

Do you think that these distinctions are useful in understanding the ancient world or do you think that they should be rejected or modified? Why?

FROM THOSE 3 PLAYES :
Antigone :  the 2004 revised edition of the 1896 translation by Lewis Campbell 
Lysistrata :  directed by Anonymous , Macmillan Films, 2015
, Twelfth Night  :  Folger edition of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night

PLEASE CHOOSE ONE AND DO THE FOLLOWING :
 
Did one of the plays end too quickly for you? Do you have more burning questions? Do you feel it is unresolved? Write a letter to the author explaining which drama you think should have a part 2 and explain in detail what should be added to the drama. Use this as an opportunity to invest yourself in the drama that interested you the most. To prevent from providing a simple rambling and unrevised answer to this prompt, you must provide thoughtful and analytical reasoning with your justification of a part 2 to the story. Specifically describe why some characters need more time on stage, prove an explanation for why the plot needs further development, and explain your reasoning for audience satisfaction based on the drama presented before them.
This essay should be 1000 words in length and include sufficient information regarding the characters and plot. Imagine this as your pitch or argument to the dramas author as to why there should be more to the story.
