Levels Of A Great Leader

1. The first thing that I learned a lot about is the levels of leaders. Before this class, I thought there were only good and bad leaders and maybe some in between. It never occurred to me that there were different levels. I finally understand why it’s so hard to be a great leader (Level Five). There are so many components that go into it and it takes years and years of experience. This is extremely important because I want to look at my leader and be able to analyze them. I would really like the fact that I can understand how different leaders work in different areas and be able to pin point what I like or don’t like about them.

There will be issues of trust, work ethic, and timing. If the groups are chosen by the students, I believe there would be a significant change in the quality of work. In groups that the students aren’t comfortable with each other, they won’t trust each other. This is a lack of trust in how much quality they will put into their work, if they will show up on time (if at all), and if they will put in as much work as you think that they should. Ideal group size is harder to know. There is no exact number that will work for every single group. Within each group, they will chose who will work best with and that ideal group size is up to them. Each group will be open to the group as they select who and how many they want to work with. As far as the learning activities go, I think that this refers to the articles and readings. We had the tables present some of the articles or concepts on the board with the information and the main points. I think that was very interesting and helpful as I wanted to see other’s ideas and reactions to the different readings. It also made me connect to the articles more and sometimes understand them better. The most interesting thing was when we all talked about the articles or readings and everyone had an idea or thought on
