What Are George Washington's Leadership Qualities
George Washington

I am going to tell you some leadership qualities of George Washington. George Washington was honesty, piety, and physical strength. He learned the importance of hard worker and efficiency. He worked hard, saved his money, and bought unclaimed land. George Washington freed his slaves and tried to set an example for others to follow. He was to take command of the Continental Army.

He was honesty and he will tell the truth. He was responsible for his work and other things he's need to do. He had courage, determination, and mental agility to keep the American cause one step ahead of complete disintegration until he figured out how to win the unprecedented revolutionary struggle he was leading.

Stallard,

    Some characteristics that define my leadership style are prepared, trustworthy, understanding, and most important adaptable. I feel that the best example of a leader we have had in the United States is George Washington. I have tried to model my leadership style after George by finding the delicate balance between being a participant in events and also taking charge when necessary. I think that flawed leadership is when one person exhibits total control over a group of people or situation. A perfect example of me exhibiting the leadership qualities mentioned before happened this summer while on a mission trip in Jamaica. Our mission team’s project for the day was to either work on planting vegetables or cultivate parched, dry ground. I chose…

A leader who holds the capacity to simultaneously transform society and maintain a fabled reputation, is one who not only holds themselves, but also their followers to a higher standard of truth, ambition, and morality. The 40th president of the United States, Ronald Reagan adequately embodied the qualities of principality leader and was greatly favored by his followers. He started a revolution of reconstructing America and he influenced people to maintain an ambitious drive. The qualities he promoted as a leader, such as commitment to truth, integrity, morality, and dedication…

    An unpretentious man with singular charm and simple personal desires, high-minded, just-minded, and clean-minded, he was in no way devious or demagogic. A sensitive man, he craved affection and approval, and often deprecated himself in favor of those he thought better men. He was not a competitive or congenital politician like Roosevelt; he simply had no political ambition and could not become another Roosevelt. He took color from those last around him. He lacked the sense to lead the people along the paths they wished to travel.…

    As a soldier George Washington demonstrated enough courage to become the commander of the Virginia troops that defended the state's western frontier during the French and Indian War. He was also a successful tobacco planter at his family plantation. In 1787 Washington's concerns about the crumbling of the nation prompted him to serve as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. He presided over the convention and his support was very important to the ratification of the newly proposed Constitution. In 1789, Washington became the first president of the United States. He served two terms guiding the new government through the organization of the executive branch, founding the nation's capital, and opening the west for settlement.…

    George Washington influenced many people by being the first president of the United States. Even after his death, Washington had a big impact on other people how he dealt with contributing to his advice. For example, Hamilton and Jefferson had different views on the Constitution, and the war between Britain and France. This led to Jefferson resigning from the Secretary of State, and led to division in America with the creation of political parties. Washington, not wanting this to happen, and get worst, he contributed the advice that political parties were a bad idea. Another event that occurred was that Spain, Britain, an France were all stronger than the United States and had some presence in North America, but Americans avoided their conflicts…

    He was faced with not only the Great Depression but also, World War II. He led America through its greatest domestic crises, not to mention one of its greatest foreign crises. Thanks to his “New Deal,” he was able to bring about the beginnings of a national recovery. He also was able to bring the United States, and our allies, to victory over the fascist governments of Germany, Italy, and Japan. This was a major altering of America’s relationship to the rest of the world. It gave us a new sense of prominence internationally. He also proved to be a fighter when polio struck him, paralyzing him. He was weakened by polio but was able to overcome it enough to one day, not only move, but walk again. This man is a hero of the United States and deserves to be recognized as…

    As for the Election of 1800, my fellow shipbuilders and I continue to support whoever can grant our original wishes for the next President. A sturdy economic plan able to provide our nation with prosperity and stability is crucial to our next President’s ideas. Better yet, a focus on foreign relations with other nations while maintaining our own set of core values is vital for the next President. Developing a connected relationship with other countries will open business and trade opportunities benefiting not only the shipbuilding industry, but ones across the nation too. In addition, preservation of unalienable rights promised in the Constitution is not only important to have but also to have guaranteed.…

    One of the reasons he is most well-known was for discovering electricity. As most people know, he went out one day with a kite and a key tied to the kite in stormy weather. The weather was not actually a lightning storm; it was just a gloomy, cloudy, and windy day. He proved that lightning was a form of electricity and that it could travel through different materials. This one small discovery led to our ability to make our own electricity which we use constantly every day of our lives. Another contribution he made, which not as many people know, is that he signed four of the major documents in U.S. history. The documents are: the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Alliance with France, the Treaty of Paris, and the Constitution of the U.S.A. If he had not been there to participate in the writing of these documents, the course of history of the United States may have been quite different. Who knows, we may not have even been the United States at all.…
