Deng Xiaoping and the Chinese Cultural Revolution
First Question: How effective was Deng Xiaoping as a leader?
People can define an effective leader in many ways but how I define an effective leader is when a leader is able to overcome problems thoroughly, replicates success and having leadership qualities. A leader that can overcome thoroughly means that the leader is able to face his/her’s problems and solving it the best way he/she can. When a leader replicates success it means that the leader achieves their goal and that is what can define success. Having leadership qualities is when a leader has leadership traits (such as confidence, open-mindedness, perseverance) which makes them an effective leader. But not all leadership qualities or traits are required for the leader to be an effective leader because there are no such thing as a perfect leader but there are leaders who are effective by using the leadership traits that each leader has and develops. When a leader can overcome problems, replicates success and has leadership qualities. That shows that, that leader is what defines what an effective leader is.

But finally on July 1977 he had earned enormous prestige in the Party and among the people and was reinstated again. When Deng Xiaoping became the leader, China was going through the change that
