THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER
     In this Hartwick Classic Film Leadership Case®  based on Tom Clancy's best-selling novel, a Russian naval commander (the most respected man in the Soviet submarineservice) defects to the West with his crew, nuclear weapons, and state-of-the-art submarine.  His leadership skills are undeniable and surface clearly as he enlists others to his cause.  Yet two other leaders also emerge in the film: an American submarine commander and a highly-talented military analyst.  The interpersonal dynamics which result from this triad reveal much about leadership.  Students are encouraged to consider how challenging the status quo, inspiring a common vision, role modeling, and motivational ability play an important role in leadership.  The case is also a cautionary tale about how easily leaders can go wrong, and how dramatic consequences can result from tactical decisions.
