Leadership Post

My computer has been acting up lately. Here is my post about leadership:

Taking this class has definitely brought new character traits and skills to light. Being a leader is more than having an outgoing personality. It’s also more than being the one in charge of everything or the one doing all the work. I’ve learned in this class the importance of having a strong personality, but also that it is not the only necessary trait of a leader. A good leader needs to be able to delegate when necessary, rather than doing everything on her own. A leader should know the strengths and weaknesses of other people on her team and work towards those. I think if I had to pick one form of leadership that I identify with the most as we go through the readings in class, I would say that I am a situational leader. I let the different situations I am in determine the kind of leader I am. Every situation is a little different, so why shouldn’t the leader be as well?
