*This week the readings talked about how leadership can be impacted by working within a group. Also, the authors talked about how within a group, members can influence one another, by creating a more stronger and diverse leader.
* I believed that the readings impacted my new definition of leadership by strongly relating leadership to the importance of group interaction amongst leading. Hughes, Ginnett, and Curphy talk about the stages that groups go through to build strong relationships with their leaders. These stages are forming, storming, norming, and performing. These stages build group leaders that are cohesive and productive (Hughes, Ginnett, Curphy, pg 292).
