Leadership Style
To be a leader one must possess a unique style and trait of leadership. Leadership and management are not the same but they both complement each other. A leader has a vision, a drive and a commitment to achieve that vision, and the skills to make it happen. A leader is a person or persons who can inspire and motivate and can carefully plan a well thought out process and execute it with positive outcomes with every team member involved. I choose my husband as the person who possesses the unmistakable qualities of a leader. He is retired from the United States Navy with honors. We met when I was a sophomore and he a senior in high school. I saw the leadership he showed when he lead the Central High School football team to the championship with the winning touchdown. While dating heavenly in love we were expecting our first child. He got a job in fast food but he knew from the beginning that fast food and back breaking mill work was not a life for us as a means of supporting and raising a family. He joined the Navy and from that point on he has been leading his squad and family to positive success. He embraced his leadership style long before joining the military. With a new family depending on him he joined the United States Navy knowing failure and eras was not an option. There was a family back home and a squad there depending solely upon him for guidance, diligence, accuracy and support. My husband was first choice because he has never left us when we needed him he had the style of self direction and modeling and has always stood and held himself accountable for what was thrust upon him. My husband overcame obstacles of being told in the military that he has the worst crew of screw- ups in milder term ever seen, being the authoritative leader he lead them first in military formation with great precision to graduation in San Diego, California in
