Write a 1500-word (±10%) popular press magazine article that convinces readers of the importance of communication concepts in the leader-follower relationship, provides readers with a clear presentation of some helpful techniques about how to evaluate their own communication, and provides readers with a clear presentation of what can be done to improve his or her communication. Discuss the role of leader communication styles in global environments and cross-cultural communication. Select a magazine. Your selection should be worthy of your work as a master of leadership student. Read the author’s guidelines if they are available, or review the feature articles of the desired magazine. Follow the guidelines you find for the specific publisher. Be prepared to furnish proof of doing so to the grading professor. When you submit the document, the text you write in the assignment manager comment box will serve as a memorandum of transmittal that clearly indicates (a) the selected magazine, (b) the URL of the magazine author guidelines or your understanding of the magazine author guidelines, and (c) a statement of how you understand your article fits those guidelines. Please include at the end of article the description of how the written article fits the guidelines of selected magazine.
