Thank you for your contribution to my post. The primary reason I selected the Donald Sterling case as the topic of my first assignment was not due to the headlines it generated, but for the leadership style Adam Silver exemplified throughout the ordeal. In any profession, we are all looking for leaders to emulate. Silver defines his leadership style as “honest, transparent and direct”, all characteristics that I would describe as the recipe of an esteemed leader (Klosterman, 2014)).
I agree that Silver’s illustration of emotional courage is to be commended. Stepping outside of the norm for the good of the game and protect the best interested of the association, showed his support for players and fans, regardless of the poor behavior others
