The Task
In this individual essay you will apply knowledge learned in class to yourself to understand and critically
reflect on your skills, motivation, and mindset to ‘be a leader’ in the context of entrepreneurship and/or
innovation. More specifically, using at least three theories discussed in class and building on the associated
self-reflection inputs and your own experiences, you will critically reflect on whether you ‘have what it takes’
to create and lead an enterprise or a project in the context of innovation. The theories provide the evidence-
based framework for self-reflection, while the self-reflection inputs are designed to help you identify your
individual strengths and potential areas of development as a future leader/entrepreneur/innovator. In sum,
the assessment is about you developing an understanding of your individual and personal approach to
leadership as well as about your strengths and possible areas of skill development.

technological, sustainability, and ethical challenges.

Assignment Details and Structure
Suggested structure for your essay:
• Introduction (brief)
• Self-reflection on XXX (organized around first theory)
• Self-reflection on XXX (organized around second theory)
2 – Assessment Briefing - 7QQMM316 –Entrepreneurial Leadership
• Self-reflection on XXX (organized around third theory)
• Conclusion: summary of what your key strengths and development areas are (brief)
• Appendix including ALL potential inputs for self-reflection provided during lectures, workshops.
and tutorials.
Note: More is not better! I recommend the use of 3 theories so that you can use these and discuss your
self-reflection in enough depth.
What theories may you use?
• Since this essay documents your learning on this module, you need to use theories discussed
during the module. Examples are personality (e.g., traits, motivation/values), team leadership,
political skill, full range of leadership theory and associated skills.
What are inputs for your self-reflection?
There are multiple inputs:
• Self-reflection assessments and questionnaires linked with the theories discussed in class.
Materials will be distributed during class/tutorials/workshops. Note that most of these materials
will be distributed as hard copies and that you MUST include copies of ALL self-reflection
assessment/questionnaires. Failure to do so will result in the deduction of 2% of marks for EACH
missing copy.
• Other inputs that you can also refer to in your essay:
o Reflections from guest-speaker inputs. Use guest speaker sheets provided to capture
insights, you must also include these sheets in the appendix to the essay.
