I believe that a leader must be honest and have high ethical standards for themselves as well as their team. Confidence and communication are critical to getting the entire team on the same page. A leader must be able to communicate their thoughts and ideas to their team. In order for the team to work together as one unit, they must understand the path they need to take and what the result should look like. When the leader exhibits confidence not only in themselves but their team, people will be more likely to follow their lead. Lastly, inspiration. Having an inspired leader will inspire the team to see the same visions and future for the…
Before the Spanish-American War even started, the United States predicted conflict with Spain. Because of this prediction, the USS Oregon (captured above) was sent from California towards Cuba. The journey was very long and the crew had to make many stops. It was more than 14,000 miles and took around 60 days. By the time the ship reached Cuba, the Spanish-American War had already begun. This incident sparked the idea in many Americans that something had to change. There had to be a better way to get from the Atlantic to the Pacific.…

To me, leadership is leading by example. My years in high school have shown me that the person who builds people up, and shows kindness is more of a leader than someone who commands and controls people. I strive to be this kind, caring person who others can look up to. As I grow older, I hope that by doing the right things, I can inspire others to do the same.…
A good leader has great vision. He knows where he wants to go and he knows how to motivate people to believe in the same vision he has for his group and life. He views things as what they could be and not what they are. A good leader is a very passionate person. He is intensely obsessed in whatever he is focused on. He also has compassion for his fellows. While he has goals to accomplish, he consistently cares for the individuals that support him. A good leader is not a selfish individual only thinking about his wants and needs. Also, a good leader is determined in attaining his goals. It is undeniably true that the key to leadership is accomplishing the tasks at hand while building relationships.…
Leadership is very important to people today. Society is heavily influenced by leadership. The economy is driven by business leaders. Countries are shaped by political leaders. People’s religion is determined by religious leaders. I try to lead by example everywhere I go. In the classroom, court, and after…
In order to become the leader that is expected of me I must increase my motivational skills to help myself as well as others. The contributions that I will be able to make to society will be reward enough because that will create an atmosphere where my peers can motivate themselves.

Being a leader is more that motivating others to strive harder and accomplish goals. It’s more about gathering everyone with different skills, religion, ethnicity, etc. and making them one. As a leader, the task is to develop new strategies, tackle problems as soon as they start, recognize signs of stress, leave personal problems as home, put the job first, etc. Not everyone makes a great leader because time isn’t implemented to make changes that are necessary and don’t put the needs of the organization and members in thought. I will discuss who has been a great leader in my life any why. Along will that, I will discuss my traits as a leader.…
There are many ways a person can be a leader. The way I show my leadership qualities is through listening and helping other people where they need it. Not all leaders need to be the stereotypical loud person of the group. In many ways good leaders are the opposite. A good leader sees what needs done and does it often times without others realizing. They put the group’s needs before their own. One area where I have stepped up to become more of a leader is through ski club. In ski club it takes a bit of a group effort especially when there is just one advisor. I listened and filled in to help where it was needed. For example, I would take beginners to get their rentals and teach them the basics like how to put on their ski pass. I also stuck with the beginners throughout their process of learning. In ski club my leadership qualities showed by listening to who needed help and by doing what I could to lend a hand, whether that was staying with beginners all day or giving them directions to the chairlift. Leadership qualities are important to have and I believe I show mine in a more subtle but effective…
In fact, a leader is someone who serves their group by taking on responsibilities and taking care of the people. Characteristics of a good leader include selflessness, kindness, empathy, a sense of purpose, a level head and good morals. A leader should be able to take any difficult situation calmly in the face of their group, and maybe with counsel, figure out the best possible course of action. Leaders face hardships such as opposition to their decisions, situations that are morally wrong in all possible courses of action and the face the hardship of dealing diplomatically with others and figuring out how to best deal with different…
When it is said to be a leader a whole bunch of qualities such as respect, teamwork, trustworthiness, etc. is to be expected. There are other qualities, such as to be unbiased, not boast, do not lie, not be ill tonged-no cursing-, deal with your own issues, treat others-mainly women- with respect, remind others how they are supposed to act, act the part you play within society, and do not be rude. The place within society needs to be “played” correctly, and that can be done by being a proper leader.…
