Answer:

The answer to the question: What leadership style was President Obama echoing in his famous speech on race, would be, Charismatic Leadership.

Step-by-step explanation:

Barack Obama II, became the 44th President of the United States from 2009 to 2017, and he was the first African American to reach the highest seat of power in the world. One of the main frameworks under which Obama worked, was the charismatic leadership framework. This style of leadership has the characteristic that, unlike the transformational style, it does not seek to change things, but rather, use emotions to inspire people, encourage them and work with what is offered. In this speech on race, Obama does not ignore the differences between races, or the way people think about races, but he invites people, encourages them, to work with these differences, and turn them into the power that will take them all towards the common goal, which is a better future. This is the characteristic of a charismatic leader.
