Ch 10 Response

Leadership is a trait in a person that is learned and born. People can take different classes or learn from other people on how they can become better leaders. People also have skills already with them in life that makes them a good leader, where an example is Dr. Martin Luther King.

There are also some barriers that leadership can have to have it be good. Through our fraternity there is always the president who leads the meetings, but he gives everyone in the group the ability to talk and express their ideas on what they think can help the group in any way. He sometimes also has to tell people to be quiet and not talk when other people are talking because that is his job. He is also to run the meeting.

Another barrier is that a person must be able to work together with other people. They must not be the people giving all the instructions because this is not going to be a positive experience for the followers. They must have a say in the ideas. I agree that change is an important part of leadership because people must be able to accept change in any situation. An example of this is having a president who is African American. People who are racist must accept that this is a society where people need to accept each other for who they are. Those are different ways a leader can be positive.
