Being a great leader is one of the most important qualities of life. John Maxwell once said “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” With this being said, in particular, three monumental leaders that we studied this year stuck out to our group. These individuals attain certain leadership qualities that has inspired not only us, but also the world. The leaders John F. Kennedy, Coach Boone, and Martin Luther King Jr. all possessed the formal leadership attributes that we studied in class.
In the movie that we watched in class called 13 days John F. Kennedy was one of the main characters, being the president, he had to show a lot of different leadership skills. First off his great since of leadership philosophy is …show more content…
He was a guy that did not want to go to war and put American lives on the line. He was trying for every alternative. Mr. Kennedy had to have a lot of conflict management throughout the 13 days because of the generals wanting to take military action. He had to keep reminding them if they did take drastic action then that would probably start world war three.

He has everything needed for a great leader: sense of priorities, creativity and entrepreneurial, sense of humor, ability to resolve and create conflict, integrity, and knowledge. As a goal setter, the two goals were to become a team and champions. At the game he said, “I’m not gonna talk to you tonight about winnin’ and losin’. You’re already winners ’cause you didn’t kill each other up at the camp.”
Coach Boone knows that the small things, such as making the routine plays in the game, must be done first before the main goal can be achieved, winning the game. He also has a high expectancy of his team. He believes that the effort of his team will lead to performance and that the performance will lead to results. He expected his
