Learning from Worst Practices -
Bad Leadership Scenarios
Think of an example of bad leadership that you
have experienced
Listen to all the examples of your group’s members,
and select one to turn into a role play.
Devise a short (maximum 2 minutes) role play of
the bad leadership experience
The person who had the experience should not
play him/herself.
Make the role play interesting and fun, and above
all make sure it emphasises the example of bad
leadership.

Bad Leadership Scenarios
Once your role-plays are finished they will be
videotaped.
This should be done independently of the
other groups, who will have an opportunity to
view the video later.
Try to ensure that the video is as clear as
possible, and clearly relates the scenario.
Practice before getting the role play filmed —
you will only get one chance to film it.

Session 12 continued - Bad
Leadership Scenarios
+ Before the group sees each video the participant
who created that role-play should brief the group
on the context of the scenario.
+ After the video has been shown, answer the
question ‘how could this situation have been
handled better by the leader and the follower?’
+ The participants should also consider whether
the situation could have been turned into a
positive learning experience.
