Sidney Poitier
When it comes to developing any type of entertainment venture, it is crucial to understand the ground rules of how to successfully conduct a team of professionals with diverse skills. In Executive Leadership, I had the opportunity of exploring the life and career of several personalities of the entertainment realm who are not only inspiring, but also exemplar industry leaders. Accordingly, I prepared a presentation on the leadership techniques that two of my favorite entertainers apply in their daily lives: Cirque Du Soleil’s Founder Guy Laliberté and actor, film director, author, and diplomat Sir Sidney Poitier. 
Additionally, I researched and examined the foundational laws of leadership by reading John C. Maxwell’s bestseller, Developing the Leader Within You, and Robert Greene’s masterpiece, The 48 Laws of Power. These textbooks helped me to identify and understand what makes a leader stand out and succeed. By studying several leadership theories, I was able to distinguish the critical skills I must develop to let the leader within me emerge effectively.
