Final Draft

Hamid Karzai is a smart an intelligent man, as well as a great leader. Throughout life we look up to smart people to be great leaders, to motivate, inspire and ultimately to lead. Not everyone possesses the ability to be a leader. Few people are capable of leading an entire country it takes an individual with a great deal of confident. I personally believe and support the idea that Hamid Karzai is a great leader. We trust that our leaders will make the proper decisions that best represent the entire population. Hamid Karzai possessed these qualities, at the time he was probably the best person to run the country.

    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.…

    Throughout the worlds history there have been countless effective leaders. Many leaders are effective because they carry with them one trait that stand out to the people. Rosa Parks exuded her bravery when sitting in the front of the bus. Determination played a key role in Nelson Mandela’s leadership in South Africa. There are some leaders that hold more than just one trait, like Cesar Chavez. Everything Cesar Chavez experienced in his life made it possible for him to bear the qualities he had and affect the world during his career. His life experience gave Cesar the leverage to have the support of the migrant workers he was fighting for. From the starts of Cesar’s career to the end, he showed the world how he could relate to the migrant workers, his dedication to giving them their union rights, his selflessness in giving his whole life to the cause, and how influential he turned out to be to the world by actually making it happen.…

A strong leader may be able to keep peace and prevent war. However, the inability of the United Nations to keep rogue nations, like Iran and North Korea, from destabilizing their neighbors will fall on the leadership of the new President and the arbitration of Congress.

    George Washington I find George Washington to be a fantastic leader. In class, he was briefly mentioned, yet we learned enough to gain my interest. I was fascinated at the fact that he was the only president to not have a degree yet such a great leader at such a young age which lead me to do a little more research of my own. George Washington assumed a great deal of leadership quite early in his life. Specifically, he was a leader of the Revolutionary Army at an incredibly young age.…

    Leaders come in every shape, size, background, ethnicity, and religion. In class we have determined that leaders need background information and experience before they can lead. Genghis Khan and Richard I are no exception to these base ideas. Both leaders were influential on their people, but they are both seen as very different people today. Between leaders there is always one that i more successful, in this case it happens to be Genghis Khan.…

    To inspire change is what most speakers strive for. A hope that maybe they’ll be remembered for doing something special is prevalent. I had three speeches to look at that in my mind achieved this goal. I ultimately chose Barack Obama. In the speech, “A More Perfect Union” the speaker Barack Obama argues uniting our country. In my opinion he uses support using personal anecdotes, reference to a well-known event, and appeals better than each of the other writers.…

    The day after you got married, the doctors realize you have a terminal illness. Your hair starts to fall out, followed with unbearable pain almost everyday, and you’re looking weaker and weaker by the minute. You think, It would be much easier to just let go than go through this pain everyday. Well, a solution would be asking your local doctor/s about assisted suicide. Assisted suicide is the suicide of a patient suffering from an incurable disease, affected by the taking of lethal drugs provided by a doctor for this purpose. In some states, like California, Colorado, Montana, Oregon, Vermont and Washington. Although a patient has to have six or less months to live to be qualified for assisted suicide, it would be better to end the suffering…

    The following pages consist of information about Leadership; I will have to admit I knew nothing about leadership and the many perspectives and ideas about Leadership and how to be an effective leader. I selected a Leader to study who is known as an effective leader and has made a difference in the world. Our world would not be the same if he had not made those choices to change his world that he lived in. I knew very little about the man that is known for his “radiant smile” and desired to know more about what caused him to be known throughout the world. I had only heard that he spent years in prison and became the first Democratic President in his country. Throughout these pages you will read the analysis of my chosen Leader’s style of effective leadership through six perspectives: trait, behavioral, situational, and constitutive which includes two theories of transactional and transformational leadership, and global leadership. I have also included a comparison of my leadership style with this “Great Man” in each of the six perspectives. Before comparing myself, I thought, I could never stand in the same room with this man, and now I am comparing myself to him. To my amazement, there is a significant learning experience that one can gain in comparing yourself with someone great like this man. I found out who I am, who I want to become and what improvements need to be made to become an effective leader, no matter how big or small our leadership role is, in this world, in our sphere of influence, “We are all Leaders”. I have concluded this paper with a personal leadership profile and a plan of leadership development that I will continue until I have become an effective Leader and have made a difference in my world, in my sphere of influence, in…
