By exploring leadership history, styles, traits, and skills, I learned how to adapt my approach to different challenges and team dynamics. This understanding helped me distinguish between the roles of managers and leaders, emphasizing the importance of strategic vision and effective communication in motivating and guiding teams.

This coursework provided me with both macro and micro perspectives, enhancing my ability to navigate the complexities of organizational structures and processes. These leadership principles are essential in managing cybersecurity operations, coordinating with multidisciplinary teams, and addressing the evolving threats in the digital landscape.
