PROJECT MANAGEMENT3IntroductionThe report will discuss in detail about three cases where leader showed good, bad and ugly side and set the good or bad example of leadership. It is important to understand here that great leader don’t really reach any height of standard success without challenges or importantcrises. In reality, many there are many exemplary leaders who actually worked through challenges and made better decision to fight it. A great leader will obviously rise to the top in the testing time when there are challenging decisions that are made as per the decisive action and must be taken (Kerzner, 2013). For better decision one need to have a clear vision to leadthe team or organization through bad times, whether they are part of economic troubles or nightmares like product failures. On the contrary there are many reasons for the business to fail and the root cause of failure can be bad management or misguided leadership or failing on strategic level and market changes. Following case studies demonstrate how three leaders achieved success or failed during serious challenges. DiscussionA good caseA description of the caseSouthwest Airlines is the best example that demonstrate that how can an airline can actually survive during the time when the government has clearly ordered to actually underground the complete fleet and declare it shut down for so many days. This is what happened with Southwest Airlines and other airlines after 9/11 incident where all US based airlines faced thesame kind of crisis and situation (Burke, 2013). Southwest airlines have managed to succeed through the challenging time and the company is also known for its best customer based services.
