| Part one was how to become a great leader and the characteristics that described a great leader. Individuals we need to be responsible and to contribute to becoming more effective citizen and get more involved with the community whether it is volunteer or helping clean a part in the community we are all a family and need to treat one other with respect. When you see one struggling help them out. Leaders are not made or born to be a leader. They choose to become one because they want to make a difference in the world and encourage people to fallow them. They know how to listen and respect people. They know that the role of leadership will never end and it is an exhausting road but they continue to fight because it is what they believe in and what to change the world. Whether it is a community and so on. They fight harder and harder until the job is done. They then find another cause and begin the fight all over again. Leaders show appreciation to their fallows and respect them as a person. The purpose of the leadership id to attempt to accomplish something or to change something for the good of the group community or society. The role of leadership you need to be open to learning as well. People are learning more about the cause they are fighting and you as a leader have to learn how to keep this issue fighting. A good definition of a good leader is on page 65 the quote in the middle of the page. I believe that it is an excellent definition that describes a leader. A leader is hopeful,have a can do attitude, open to differences, believes everyone has something to offer, values others contributes, willing to share the power, trustworthy, being reliable, learner, inspiring, rewarding, directing, making sure others have their resources to get their job done, and mentoring. A leader needs to treat their fallows with great respect and i would see it as a big family and they respect one another. Not like a corporate world where the boss comes to you and yells at you and tells you it needs to be done in a half and hour when you just got the material. Need to work together as a team and help one anther as a family would do. |

I also think that the relationship between leader and followers should be respectful, like a family or team. I found the section on 'followership' to be very interesting and original as it seems that not a lot of emphasis is placed on the follower, like it is viewed as an insignificant role, when, in essence, it may even be more important than the leader as followers always outnumber the leader. :)
This is good! I like the dialogue.
