This presentation will highlight examples of Washington displaying the different forms of leadership in famous historical events, detailing upon how his leadership affected those around him and ultimately changed history. Washington utilized transformational leadership styles such as Inspirational Motivation with his speeches, bolstering the willpower of those who followed him. Washington also utilized in the Valley Forge with his care for the well-being of his troops, as shown by the letter he sent to the Convention of New Hampshire requesting clothing and food for them.
