“I never underestimated myself, and I never saw anything wrong with ambition –Angela Merkel.” Angela Merkel, also known as one of the architects of the European Union, is a German Politician who entered the political world in 1989. Merkel has been the Chancellor of Germany since 2005, and the leader of the Christian Democratic Union since 2000. Angela Merkel is the first woman to hold either of these offices, which is why I consider her a great leader. According to (Mills, 2008), the idea of leadership drives individuals to inspire and move people to pursue great work. Although, there is no single definition of leadership that satisfies all, there are characteristics that make up a good leader. I chose Angela Merkel as my leader as she is a…

I believe her message, in simplest form, was to find a balance in living a life pleasing to God while also looking out for and bettering humanity. Don’t just live your own life, instead inspire others, stand up against injustices, and take care of one another. She recognized that our society became very good at looking out for and providing for themselves or individualistic. She challenges people to put others before themselves and restore humanity.…
She put all that aside so everyone around the world can achieve their goals and help support their…

Margaret Thatcher, otherwise known as The Iron Lady, was known for her role in saving Britain. The economy of Britain was facing tremendous troubles in the nineteen hundreds (Blundell 92). If the economy of Britain continued down the road it was going, Britain would have faced many great economic hardships that Margaret Thatcher prevented during her time in office. Margaret Thatcher, the first female prime minister in British history, exceptionally reformed Britain in a time of need while leaving a legendary legacy in history.…
A leader is someone who inspires people, who can be clutch as a forerunner to get started on a way of thinking; or sometimes a leader is the fearless one who steps in a place no one has dared to and when they do, they do so without remorse. A leader doesn’t look back at what has passed, but instead looks ahead at what’s to come. A leader is honest, caring and has integrity. A leader confronts challenges and does not let the voice of haters or malicious people bring them down. A great leader, not just a leader can do all of these things and when they are pushed down they can get back up and keep going like no one has touched them. A leader, who fits this description in my eyes, is Sarah Palin.…
Romans 12:2 also brings her memory to my mind as I read, “Do not conform yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. Then you will be able to know the will of God—what is good and is pleasing to Him and is perfect.”…

Murder, treason, and deceit are common themes in William Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet. Throughout the play the women are often viewed as weak in character as the men easily dominate them and steal the spotlight through their manic actions. The time period in which Shakespeare would have written Hamlet, women would have been treated with little respect. One woman that shows her feminine power is Gertrude, the Queen of Denmark and mother to Hamlet. Through the play it seems that Gertrude has committed more bad deeds than good, but with further examination, her actions can be seen as altruistic and loving. Queen Gertrude in Hamlet reveals her true strength through her selfless actions for both Hamlet and Denmark.…
Her attitude was one of compassion, fairness, and determination to be a person of credibility. These same characteristics can be seen in powerful speakers such as Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King, President Obama, and many others who have demonstrated their gifted abilities of speech.…
Delivered through video to the Fourth World Conference on Women, Suu Kyi’s Keynote Address aimed to promote democratic freedom for women both in Burma and worldwide. Put under house arrest by the Burmese government for posing a threat to their regime’s stability, Suu Kyi demonstrated incredible courage in simply delivering the speech despite the potential backlash. However, Suu Kyi does not simply leave it to circumstance to prove her courage, and maintains a strong sense of ethics throughout her feminist crusade within the first sentence, she describes her task as “wonderful but daunting”. She continues to fill her speech with a soft sense of humour and optimism while addressing this “greatest concourse of women (joined by a few brave men!)”, and her attitude underlies her strength of character in dealing with such a “daunting” issue.…
Aung San Suu Kyi is a burmese political leader of Burma (Myanmar) who fought for freedom and human rights from 1988 to this day. She has shown courage and patience throughout the years and has become an “important symbol in the struggle against mistreatment” [swot analysis]. I believe there should be more people like Suu Kyi who give their best and everything to make the world a better place.…
