Abstract/Description
What are the similarities and differences between Stalin’s, and Putin’s rise to power? How have their similarities and differences impacted their leadership style with regards to how they governed? Given the similarities between Stalin and Putin one may lead to speculate that the former is a strong influence on the latter. Stalin has become a major influence in the manner in which Putin developed his leadership style. By adapting Stalin like tactics, Putin developed characteristics that have been manifested in the manner in which he leads Russia in the present today. The focus specifically is on how their governing styles came to be based on their background. Equally important is, how to this day, Stalin’s leadership continues to influence Putin’s decision-making process. By examining the life experiences of both leaders such as, personality traits, rise to power, and how Stalin continues to be a major influence on Putin’s leadership style we are able to better understand how Putin operates as a leader.
