A Leader : A Great Deal Of Criticism From Politicians, Media, And Politics

Is it right for people to sit during the National Anthem? Peoples opinion on this statement differ. As Americans we have the right to voice our opinions due to the first amendment, however since the National Anthem represents those rights we shouldn’t act against the country’s flag.

Donald Trump has used this power to intimidate those who oppose him. “Trump roots his intimidation in a worldview — the need for the strong hand” (Gerson, 2016). Trump has used examples of ‘strong leaders’ to praised them for the actions. Trump references the massacre of Tiananmen Square, China, as country showing its true strength (estimates lean towards as many as three-thousand killed). Mr. Trump criticized the methods used to dismantling the protest but admired the Chinese government on the strength that was shown. Another example of Donald Trump condoning violence as means to intimidate is when he responded to a journalists inquiring about Vladimir Putin having seven prestigious media personal killer. ““He’s running his country and at least, he’s a leader, unlike what we have in this country.” (Gerson, 2016). Donald Trump shows his approval of these strong leaders and criticizes traditional democratic countries. It is a scary thought to imagine Donald Trump becoming one the of the most powerful people in the world who approves the use of Martial Law to control, intimidate and show the strength of a

Authoritarian rulers place themselves above the law without any reprimand. There is no respect for civil society and the population has limited political participation. These rulers often strive to financially benefit themselves rather than their state and any opposition is removed by threats of violence. This increases fear within the population and increases power of the ruler or rulers. All media platforms are censored and monitored and the ruler or party

An effective leader is someone who knows how to influence and stimulate their followers (Jones, 2015). It is also important for effective leaders to have empathy and communicate their ideals (Jones, 2015). Several Presidents in the US’s history have been ineffective. Often when they are running for the position they make promises they have no way of keeping or they flip flop from one opinion to the opposite so the public does not know how they truly feel and therefore cannot trust them. Our current President is a perfect example of an ineffective leader.

There are many things that can make someone a poor leader. He can be lazy, rude, unfair, etc. In my case, the worst leader I ever had was the boss I had when I worked for an insurance company. My boss played favorites, gave away her work, micromanaged, lacked human skills, and recorded everything that someone did wrong. All of these factors are what make her the worst leader I ever had.

If public opinion is completely ignored, presidents lose support and backing of their actions. It’s been seen that, “The people are the arbiters of access to and retention of presidential power,” (). To be effective in any of their endeavors, presidents need some sort of public approval, and public approval comes from following public opinion. It is not an obligation, but it is a tool for success. While studying citizen oversight, it was found that, “news reports of presidential policy successes and failures were correlated with higher and lower levels, respectively, of Gallup Poll-tested public approval of presidential approval,” (). This government was made to be for the people, so it only follows that government leaders are most effective when listening to the voice of the people.

There is a mind-boggling question that has been floating around the American people here lately. And the question is, “What are the qualifications to construct a good political leader?” When you think about this, other careers such as law enforcement, health professionals, educators, and even city transit drivers all have a more clear-cut job depiction on how to be successful in that career, but when it comes to the criteria for political leadership, one will find a vague description on how and what to do, and the various loop holes in certain areas in politics. So this creates an even more challenging task for people to define if a political leader is good or bad; and could possibly create a divide across the nation.

Over the course of world history, certain people come along who leave an indelible mark on our societal standards. Although they may not realize it at the moment, even the most minute of actions a world leader takes can have a profound impact on the current state of a governing body. In times gone by, people who had power vested in them have squandered it fruitlessly, which, debatably, made a larger impact on the current state of humanity than anything else. Subsequently, every once in a while, a leader comes along that captures the attention of the populace and seizes the power that has been vested in them. These leaders make decisions that are beneficial for every individual in the body being presided over, rather than on their own interests. The United States of America has been graciously fortunate to have been presided over by leaders that could be classified as the greatest in human history. As a matter of fact, one of those noble

Regan and Henderson theorize that a regime will engage in more repression if its leaders sense a great political threat. While a typical autocracy allows zero expression of opposition and a democracy offers numerous channels for expression,

Donald Trump shows that “one man can not row two canoes” when he runs for presidency, works with his business and working on the problems he will fix. Donald Trump is is the president chairman and executive officer of his own company Trump Organization.Koffler, Jacob. "Donald Trump’S 16 Biggest Business Failures And Successes." Time.Com (2015): N.PAG. Middle Search Plus. Web. 19 Oct. 2016. .For him to be in charge of all of these things in his own company means that he is a very hard working man. This also means he knows how to work a lot of jobs at once being the president means to be the face of the company the chairman means to make all the important decisions with the board. Trump has said that when he's president that he will face all

"The people think of wealth and power as the greatest fate, But in this world a spell of health is the best state" - Suleiman the Magnificent. Suleiman the Magnificent, Nelson Mandela, and Queen Elizabeth all had one thing in common, they were all great leaders that will be remembered in history. They each had characteristics that made them great leaders for their time, and had leader qualities that really made each one of them unique, yet at the same time fantastic leaders.

The capacity of an individual to influence someone’s character, development, and/or behavior effectively is the definition of an influential leader. A successful leader that demonstrates certain attributes and competencies, not only has an influence on their subordinates, but also influences outside the organization. As a Staff Sergeant with 11 years in the Army, I have encountered several different types of leaders, some good and some not. One leader stands out in my mind as influencing who I am as a leader today, 1SG Alvin King. 1SG King’s demonstrated character, presence, and intellect influenced me as a Soldier and leader, and contributed positively to the Army and NCO Corps.

To me, leadership is more than a title. It is more than just being in charge. Leadership is honestly, learning, listening, and most importantly application. Leadership means going the extra mile or two, doing the right thing no matter who’s looking, staying encouraged and encouraging other even when times are hard and you have every reason to quit. Leadership doesn’t mean you’re rich, well known, liked, or respected but it does mean you are a passionate, caring, and authentic. Leadership means you care about something so much you are willing to risk everything you have for this belief or idea. Leadership is doing whatever you can in your power to make things better for those around you.

I enjoyed reading your post. I think it is an awesome thing to have someone in your life that forces you to be the best; as well as reach your maximum potential. In my opinion, leaders should lead by example, with their actions as well as their words. People who say one thing but do another eventually lose

No government allows absolute freedom, but democracies do not heavily censor newspapers and public expression of opinions. The elections must be fair and competitive, and the government or political leaders cannot control the results. The government must respond in some way to citizen demands. Authoritarian governments might hold elections and they might have contact with their citizens, but citizens do not have any voice in how they are ruled. King's, military leaders, emperors, a small group of aristocrats, dictators and even presidents or prime ministers may rule authoritarian governments. The leader's title does not automatically indicate a particular type of
