My leadership philosophy is based on leading by example. I treat people with respect, show care, work hard, and display ambition. I feel by showing these traits, day in and day out, it will inspire not only followers, but also other leaders. I also know, when to take a servant leadership position.

Problems relating to someones home or family life, and the connections they find within that, can lead to people breaking away in order to seek, and form, more substantial connections elsewhere. This is portrayed within J.D. Salinger’s ‘Catcher In The Rye’, and Sean Penn’s ‘Into The Wild’.

Both…
