The turning point of Randy’s leadership proves that he is a great leader. For instance, Randy starts thinking about what he have to do and what position he should take. When Randy helped buried Porky that was when he realized that he have an authority, legally. “Randy walked to the house, wondering a bit about himself. Without being conscious of it, he had begun to give orders” (169). This quote shows that Randy had given orders without conscious. Throughout the last five and six chapters, Randy's leadership had made Fort Response survived the war. As well as the people in Fort Response.…
Omar Bradley, while not the prototypical leader, was exceptionally effective leading troops with his more introverted style. Bradley was born near Clark, Missouri, on February 12, 1893. Although he grew up in an impoverished area, he was able to receive a good education while also proving to be a star athlete. After high school, he immediately began working for a railroad company in order to earn money for college. Bradley originally entered the University of Missouri, but a suggestion from a Sunday school superintendent led him to pursue an appointment at West Point. He placed first in the competitive testing for his area and became enrolled for the fall of 1911. While others around him found it difficult to acclimate, Bradley enjoyed the challenge of balancing the arduous curriculum, stringent military life, and athletics. He finished 44th out of 164 students while lettering in baseball and football.…
Leadership is defined as “a process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task”. In my opinion, leadership is one of the most desirable qualities that a person can possess. No matter the environment, leaders are needed in every aspect of life. Children need leaders to help them develop, students need leaders to help them learn, and teams need leaders to help the group achieve a common goal. But the real question emerges, how does one become a leader? Are leaders born, or do they rise to the occasion? How do leaders get their peers to rally around their actions? Former National Football League linebacker Ray Lewis of the Baltimore Ravens epitomizes what a leader should be on the field. Lewis was a linebacker for 17 seasons (1996-2012) for the Baltimore Ravens, and the early 2000’s Ravens defense is considered one of the greatest units in sports history. However, while Ray Lewis was viewed as one of the best on the field leaders in NFL history, however his legacy, reputation, and image were tainted by actions away from the playing field.. How is it that a figure like Ray Lewis could be so revered on the field, but off the field he was heavily criticized for his actions and behavior? Throughout this essay I will analyze Ray Lewis’ upbringing and discuss how he developed his leadership qualities that caused former teammate Jamal Lewis to say, “In recent history, I can’t really think of a player who has been as valuable to a team as Ray Lewis has been. He’s a different player, as far as his physicality, his passion off the field, his work ethic, and at the same time he can lead vocally. You don’t have all of that in one player, and I think that’s what makes him a Hall of Famer and probably the best linebacker to ever play the game.” (Belmont 41). I will draw on Lewis’ leadership qualities and compare and contrast them to figures we studied throughout the semester…

It is a pleasure to nominate Dave Giles for the "Most Outstanding Person" award. He is a former alumni of Carl Sandburg College. My first impression of Dave came in 2012 when he gave hands-down the best speech on the importance of education that I had ever heard. He truly enjoys spending his time helping the community's youth. He has also continued to live up to that impression of being a passionate man who is optimistic, supporting, and is as committed to children as he is to bettering our society.…
I strongly believe the Good Samaritan Sports Award should go to the one player performs at the highest caliber while playing his sport, but also goes out of their way to help people and help the world be a better place. Stephen Curry should win the Good Samaritan Sports Award, because he fits those descriptions perfectly . He dominates on the court, and gives back to the world when he is not playing. Zach Randolph is a great person, but he simply has not done enough to help the…

A leader is born, not made. Through a long period of times, through different system of educations and experiences in life, every leader can be how they are today, like Bill Gates for example after all the hard works and the desire of wanting to achieving their goals. National Honor Society is an organisation that has had a lot of young leaders at different ages in which show the important qualities of being a leader, not just stop at being an inspirational place and have a strong desire. They accepted criticisms to gather experiences, they accepted novel changes, and they accepted failures as lessons. With the nomination, I, too, believed that I have those important traits to become a leader of National Honor Society. Lastly, I, too, believed…
