7. 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. 7
8. 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.

9. 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.
