Sergeant Louis, Renzo E. Leadership Challenge: Can You Conquer It? 1. As an NCO, what specifically will you do to influence your peers and junior Marines to reverse this trend? Personally, I will focus on a couple of my main leadership principals, “set the example” and “know yourself and seek self-improvement”. The reasons behind why I like those specific leadership principals is because in my opinion the need to set the example first before we expect anything from the other Marines, and if…

Faced with many responsibilities, a good captain of a debate team must exhibit a positive attitude, be able to create an encouraging and fun environment, and be organized in order to coordinate their team. Most importantly, a fair captain is open-minded and accepts criticism to be the best version of themself as possible. It is because I believe that I’m very receptive to other people’s input, always try to better myself, and enjoy helping people – that I hope to be a worthy candidate for a…

To open my discussion on how I will become a stronger leader, it is first important to note what makes an effective leader. After completing this course, I have a new perspective on what makes an effective leader. Therefore, I would like to spend the opening of this development plan documenting my deeper understanding of some of the qualities effective leaders possess. First, leaders must be adaptable. One of the ideas I initially learned from the required book for this class is that there is…

Kristen Hammersmith has been promoted to a managerial position by Tim O’Connell to fill the position which was once held by Alessandra. Tim has agreed on delivering a six weeks’ project in two weeks for the “Hybara Casinos”, client of Driscoll. After reading the HBR article “Is the Rookie Ready?” by Sarah Green, I believe Kristen should be given a chance to lead the “Hybara situation” given that Tim incorporates, manages and take care of setting in implementing the agenda to the whole group and…

First, a mindset of self-development can be facilitated through self-leadership, a requirement to authentically lead a team (Maxwell, 2003). Team members love and admire a coach that can help them go to the next level by empowering them to be successful; however, coaches cannot give what they do not have themselves (Maxwell, 2003). Coaches must first have the ability to lead themselves (e.g., identity, study, experiment, and embrace their own strengths) before leading others. Realizing…

The task of a leader is not to create followers, but to create more leaders by inspiring others with positive qualities. A leader’s task goes far beyond commanding others, they must lead by example and encouragement. These characteristics of an individual are equally as important as scholarly traits in an academic environment, as they show a student’s true character and dedication. Dedication is what a proper leader must strive for in order to lead by example. In my case, captain of the swim is…

“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” -- John C. Maxwell. Being the drum major this past year, I have learned a lot about being a leader within the band. I would like to continue this position so I can keep the band on the great path it seems to follow. Leaders shouldn’t be perfect, that is the worse possible thing for them to be. They need to be able to make mistakes, learn from them, and fix them. That shows others that leaders make mistakes too, and it…

Discuss the selection process that Gideon used to select his team. How can this story about getting the “right people on the bus” be applied to your organization? As instructed by God, Gideon’s selection process began with him allowing the departure of the men in his army who felt afraid to battle the Midianites. This allowance resulted in Gideon’s loss of twenty-two thousand men from his army at one time. With the ten thousand men remaining, and still under the instruction of God, Gideon…

There are many leaders in our world. A leader is looked up to by a group of people. Leaders also help make the decisions for that group. However, leadership (which is the action of leading people) requires a lot of responsibility and work. Most leaders need to display confidence and n0eed to know how to organize their followers. A good leader should have good ideas. If you have good ideas, those ideas would hopefully bring positive change. George Washington had many good ideas as the…
