Leadership.

This week in class we learned about the different approaches of leadership. Leadership is defined in simplest forms, but is made up of many differnt components to form the true definition. I find this class to be very interesting, and although I only chose this class because it was "reccomended," I'm glad I ended up taking it. I think that this class gives students to not only learn material but about themselves as well. This class as broadened my horizon on leadership. I always enjoy having a small class like this, its refreshing, since there are almost 600 students in other classes. It gives students' the opportunity to break out of their shell and to engage in conversation. I find it helpful listening to other students' inputs on leadership and their outlook on it.

We were asked to right a reflection on someone that you personally know that you find to be a leader.
I wrote:

Someone that I personally know that I consider a truly exceptional leader was my high school speech class teacher, Mrs. Tar. I have always felt that I have the confidence and ability to do a great job with public speaking, nerves always seem to get in the way however. Mrs. Tar was able to lead a classroom and have words of encouragment to motivate students to do their best work. She incorporated fun and exciting to apporach public speaking. She challenged me in many ways, but gave me that extra push in exceeding something that I found to be very difficult.
