The continuous analysis of the case studies on leadership This in-depth analysis is a continuous observation of the analysis of the skills and leadership styles of two of most famous college basketball coaches, Coach Knight and Coach Krzyzewski (Coach K), based on using path goal theory and member leader exchange (LMX).

This is achieved by identifying motivational factors, eliminating any obstacles and thus improving their performance, offering them appropriate rewards along the way. Analyzing both Coach Knight and Coach K, it is clear that these are leaders who have put the achievement of the team's objectives at the forefront and at the same time have provided them with the necessary elements and information by rewarding them for their admirable work together with the Coach. Knight, on the other hand, expresses aggressive, energetic, and self-confident behavior, making him appear more competent in both the task and social dimensions. Coach Knight is an assertive person and is very motivated to lead and take control through strength (Anderson, 2009) In my opinion, Coach K, as demonstrated through his actions, is by far the most effective leader, although this does not It means that Coach Knight was not an excellent effective leader at one point in his career.
