The movie Saving Private Ryan in my opinion is the definition of leadership. In this movie I think I have never seen a better hero as well as leader in a time of crises then Tom Hank’s character. Throughout the movie His character illustrates many great leadership behaviors but one that can be identified all throughout the movie is Leader member exchange theory. Looking at his character through the LMX phases, Tom Hank’s character hits all the steps. At first the soldiers and he are strangers trying to find a common bond (saving Private Ryan). As the movie continues Tom Hanks and the soldiers go to acquaintances and towards the end, the group forms a partnership between themselves as well as Tom Hanks because of his amazing leadership skills, that teach the soldiers that together they can accomplish anything.
