project management
Prepare a five to seven paragraph response proposing leadership styles you would recommend for the Denver Airport Project. Please choose a combination (two or three) of the eight leadership styles presented in the Thompson textbook (Chapter 11: Leadership: Managing the Paradox).

Task leadership aspects include taking responsibility for decisions, setting short- term and long-term goals and training employees to perform their assigned responsibility. Task leadership leaders communicate what future plans they have for their company. Transformational leadership motivates teams to work toward goals not originally expected. Transformational leaders put aside their own interest in the service of
