choosing a person – who you
consider to be a thought or opinion leader in your personal online social
networks to understand and analyze their leadership within your social network
system.
An online social network might include Facebook,
Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok or any other similar social media network.
While you can analyze any social medium, the person you are analyzing should
have a interpersonal connection with you – for example it cannot be Kim
Kardashian or any other celebrity who is an influencer in your network but not
( in most cases) an interpersonal connection.
For this reflection paper, you are trying to select a
person who influences your network, is of importance in your network and who,
according to you, exerts leadership with a particular group of people including
you in disseminating information and opinions through your social media
network. You will use this person, and the communication that they use in their
social media, to analyze their leadership communication.
After you identify this person, you need to respond to
the following prompts for the reflection paper.
1) Who
is the person you have chosen and briefly describe their role in your life (or
in other words, your relationship with them)? If you are not comfortable using
their names, use an alias? (10 points)
