The Library has many resources to help you with your leadership project. Search the Library Catalog to find books and videos on leadership as well as biographies of leaders. Below are frequently used sources:

Getting started:

Books are great sources for identifying leaders in any field. Below are some titles to consider looking at before you decide on a person to research.

Encyclopedia of Leadership
Reference HD 57.7 .E53 2004
Award winning, comprehensive 4-volume encyclopedia contains biographies, case studies, and articles about leadership styles, gender issues, theories and concepts, leadership in different disciplines and environments, personality characteristics, power, and situational factors. Don't let its publication date scare you away. The set is still being published.

Icons of Business: An Encyclopedia of Mavericks, Movers, and Shakers
Reference HC 102.5 .A2 D74
Great source to identify leaders in various industries.

How to find recent articles on leadership topics:

For this project, you will be including what others have said about your person and their style of leadership. A simple Google search may identify blogs and YouTube content in which others have made comment about that person, but don't rely just on what you find through "Googling". To have a more balanced view of your leader, obtain articles that have been published by a magazine, newspaper or journal. These articles are often more credible because they go through an editorial process. In some cases, they will also share their sources so that you can evaluate the level of research the authors conducted. What databases are best? I suggest seeing what the Wall Street Journal, THE daily financial newspaper, has on your person. I would also try Business Source Complete for sources. This a HUGE database that has articles from all kinds of recent publications. Academic OneFile is another favorite of mine.

Tips for better searches:

Finding articles that will analyze one person is hard to find. Using the person's name as part of the search can usually help you. Another option is to search by industry.

Other words to try:

leadership
leaders
style
personal narratives
practice
training
communication
management

Citing your sources:

Not only will you include information from the articles either in direct quotes or paraphrased form, you are also expected to create an MLA based citation. Examples of how that looks are here. If citing is new to you, make an appointment with a writing coach in the Learning Commons for more help. It can make a difference in the quality of your work.

This guide is designed to help you find resources about marketing. The collection contains books, e-books, DVDs, and periodicals. We also offer access to a wide selection of databases for industry research, demographics, and market research reports. Use the menus on the right to start searching for different types of materials.

BYO Reseach Sessions are not your usual library workshops.

We want you to bring your assignments so we can help you find the resources you need for the projects you're working on.

Here's how BYO works: 1. Pick the session that matches the stuff you need 2. Show up (All workshops are in SRC 3104 in the Library unless otherwise noted.) 3. Learn what you need to learn 4. Ask questions

Sessions are just one-hour long-- you get 30 minutes of show & tell from an expert librarian and 30 minutes to work on your research and get help from that expert librarian.
Make sure you bring your assignment or have access to your assignment in Blackboard! We can't help you if you don't know what you have to do.
