Discuss the most influential leaders and how they have shaped the industry in a well-researched paper.

Contrast the perspectives and drivers of professionals working in the media & entertainment industries to the perspectives of consumers and/or fans.

The purpose of this assignment is to learn from a leader’s successes, failures, and leadership styles within the entertainment business. From the earliest examples of music and sports to the more modern sectors including theme parks and the Internet, the industry is diverse and expanding. Even with this diversity and growth, many industry leaders share similar personal and professional traits including drive, motivation, perseverance, and customer and market knowledge. This assignment will explore what makes some industry leaders successful.
                                                                INSTRUCTIONS

Each answer should be at least 5 sentences per question.
1. What leader have you chosen to speak about and what companies has your leader worked for?
2. What are some of your leader’s greatest business achievements?
3. What are some of your leader’s biggest business failures?
4. What have you learned from your leader’s achievements and failures?
5. Read this article “The 7 Traits of a Great Leader” and include at least 3 specific qualities you think your leader exhibits. “All” is not a sufficient answer.
6. How might your leader’s perspective of the media and entertainment industry be different from the average fan or consumer? Meaning, what makes your leader so great? What did/does your leader see that no one else sees that puts them on top?
Research is a big component of this assignment. You should be spending quite a bit of time searching for your answers.

BeardExtra Credit: Watch this clip, made by NPR (National Public Radio) of Frederick Douglas’ great great… grandchildren reciting his speech “What to the Slave is The Fourth of July”, written for and spoken to a crowd of abolitionists in 1852.

Also keep in mind that this production was made in the summer of 2020 when BLM (Black Lives Matter) protests were well underway following the murder of George Floyd. What is your experience of the 4th of July?

Case Study :A 53 y/o African American male with a history of CAD s/p remote PCI to unknown vessel(s), ischemic cardiomyopathy, HTN, DM, and CKD III has been hospitalized with decompensated heart failure. He is a retired salesman by profession. He has a 40 pack year history of smoking; he quit after his MI 6 years ago.His medications include: Glyburide 10 mg, isosorbide mononitrate 80 mg daily, spironolactone 100 mg daily, digoxin 0.25 mg daily, furosemide 120 mg daily, enalapril 20 mg daily, and ASA 81 mg daily.Echocardiography demonstrated regional wall motion abnormalities, moderate mitral regurgitation, and an ejection fraction of 25-35%, down from his previous EF of 40-50% on imaging obtained ~6 months ago. The patient was referred for cardiac catheterization.Repeat coronary angiography appreciated multivessel coronary artery disease not amenable to PCI. An intra-aortic balloon pump was placed and CT surgery was consulted for CABG evaluation.On transfer from the cath lab table to the stretcher, the patient converted to ventricular fibrillation and experienced cardiopulmonary arrest. Discuss anticipated invasive/non-invasive monitoring strategies for this patient and his expected hemodynamic parameters.
