The German population viewed Adolph Hitler as a strong

leader, and someone who could lead their nation back to
power and wealth. He may have been bad for humanity,
but the German people viewed him as a hero. It has been
debated over many years whether or not Adolf Hitler was
a good leader for his country.
Although his intentions were corrupt, Adolf Hitler
proved himself to be a clever leader a great leader because
he kept all of his promises and even today most leaders
fail to do as they say. He brought Germany back out of
The Depression, and he certainly made Germany the
worlds strongest country, during the beginning and
middle of World War Two.

Adolf Hitler, regardless of his wrong doings and

the obvious evil that he empowered, was one of
the great leaders of our time and changed the
way that our society looked at war. The fact that
Hitler came from a front-line soldier with no real
future in a leadership role to the chancellor of
Germany and the commander of a great army
shows his great will and ability to meet his goals
and to manipulate people to achieve a vision.

Overall, Hitler's situational analysis and

leadership style based on the analysis and the
situations that he created for himself make Hitler
a great leader and a great man in the respect that
he turned nothing into something huge. It is
unfortunate that he used his abilities for evil
rather than good, but his accomplishments as a
leader must be regarded as great. This style of
leadership would not be likely to succeed in a
growing, innovative corporation today, but in the
setting that Germany and Adolf Hitler found
themselves in during the 1930's, the style proved to
be very successful when referring to the definition
of leadership that we have been concerned with
this term.
