The store manager then had a meeting with all the employees in the store a few weeks later reiterating that taking anything from the store without paying for it is stealing and that we have an obligation to report activity if we are aware of it. This created a personal conflict (Stojkovic, et al, 2015) as I was battling with myself about the right thing to do.

The areas that I was chosen as a leader (e.g. group presentations and team leaders at work), I exerted more of an achievement-oriented leader most of the time. However, looking back I realized that, a more participative or supportive leadership role would have fostered a better working environment. Furthermore, having a conceptual decision making style would have allowed these people to participate in decisions that would most likely affect them, which would have increased productivity and well-being. Additionally, from past experiences I realized that I excel in informal leadership roles at school and in the workplace. Therefore, I should allow myself to obtain a formal leadership role,
