Ms. Tilton Leadership Paper

When we think about what a leader and manager is, most of us will use the same meaning. But in actual fact this is incorrect. We have to look at these two terms differently. What is a manager? A manager is someone who is responsible for directing and controlling the work and staff of a business, or of a department within the organization. So what is a leader? A leader is someone whom people follow, somebody who guides or directs others. Looking at both terms they both are very different. The question is always asked is a manager can be a leader and leader a manager. The true answer is managers are not always leaders, while leaders can be

Being nominated for the Joanne Woodard Leadership Award has been one of the highlights of my semester thus far. I am truly honored to be nominated for an award that is a demonstration of my ability to lead ethically, serve as a role model, and use my influence to advance African and African American culture on campus. Having held different positions in various campus community centers, my goal is for my leadership style to reflect the missions of the African American Cultural Center, Multicultural Student Affairs, and the Office for Institutional Equity and Diversity.

Every person has some kind of good and evil traits within their personality, but what really defines good and evil? People from different cultures could consider different traits to be “good” or “evil” or even a little of both. There are times in life where a person has to make certain choices that could be interoperated both ways. In this paper, I will be analyzing different characters in the story “The Good Women of Suzutan” and what type of role each personality plays within the story in order to give the audience a chance to come up with their own ending.

I think that people are being selfish and not thinking about the environment and these hydrothermal vents. Also the evidence for why mining near hydrothermal vents is much stronger than why it’s beneficial. People say it’s beneficial because there’s no acid mine drainage, or that mining does not affect active black smokers and lastly, that the sulfide deposits are on the seafloor so there is not any waste rock piles. Many people believe that the hydrothermal vent creatures could be what the early life had evolved from. Comparing these weak evidence about why mining near hydrothermal vents is beneficial to why it is not good is hilarious. People mine for gold, silver, copper, zinc and lead from hydrothermal vents deposits. It may be an easier

Gun violence in the United States has been a growing anomaly. Everyday 309 people die from guns in America, and this number is growing. These tragedies can be a result of suicide, murder, gang related, racially motivated, accidents etc. In the past, many policy makers in Washington have attempted to create a law to decrease the number of gun related deaths, however, many of these attempts have become unsuccessful. The second amendment, the right to bear arms, is a right given to the citizens of the United States by our founding fathers. This rudimentary right is something that many citizens in this country hold dear and will not see taken away. Because of the struggle to find a common ground between acceptable guns and unnecessary guns is so hard, this has sparked a national

The role of leadership is an important position within an organization or group, since this position may influence an environment, both, the individual, and the climate. In the event of concentrating on how influential leadership may be, some leaders have transformed the views or perspectives of individuals within a society. Therefore, it’s possible for leadership traits to motivate, persuade, or stimulate visions, rather they are appropriate or unethical.

Goal Two: Find staff who are providing exceptional care to patients and publicly recognizing one person per week by placing a note on the staff bulletin board stating who was “Caught Being AWESOME!”.

Motivator, director, inspirer --- appellations that every leader strives to be. Young leaders set these titles as their goals, striving to become a greater motivator, director, and inspirer everyday. However, they recognize that there is no time that one can exhibit outstanding leadership because, simply, outstanding leadership does not exist. No matter the act, no matter the exuberance of prosperity that comes from it, these acts are something that should be sought after every single day plainly for the reason that it is what they should do, not because they are looking for recognition or view the acts as outstanding. They view these acts of leadership as normal day to day occurrences that every person should strive to experience. This is

Throughout history, there have been many great leaders who have made many great achievements. Three leaders specifically who made extraordinary accomplishments are Suleiman the Magnificent, Nelson Mandela, and Queen Elizabeth I. Each one of these leaders helped their country in many ways and are referred to as honorable, and fascinatingly intelligent leaders. Although each of these leaders are similar in how they moved their country forward, each one lived in different time periods and had different ideas on how to make their country or empire great.

Prometheus, in Greek mythology and literature, is known widely and most obviously for his many enthralling elements. Though there is a wide array of dissimilar stories told of Prometheus, the most dominant and popular one is told by Hesiod in his Theogony. From Hesiod’s account, Prometheus was the great Titan who defied the Greek gods and stole fire from Hephaestus for the use and helping of mankind. This act facilitated the progression for civilization. Ultimately, there are three main points for the various interpretations of Prometheus in literature and mythology, Firstly; Prometheus was punished on behalf of Zeus for his transgression. Infuriated beyond despair, he hid the helpings of human living; fire, solely due to Prometheus’

Leadership requires the use of certain qualities and traits to be effective. According to Marquis and Hudson (2015), leaders should display positive attitudes, be accountable, use good and clear communication. I have identified my innate leadership style as well as my personality type. There is no perfect leadership style and a leader should be able to use different leadership styles depending on the situation, but know which style I am akin to, will help me further develop my leadership skills. Knowing which personality traits I have will allow me to hone my positive leadership qualities as well as to identify

As an ASB leadership student we represent the student body, manage the finances of other clubs with our business meeting, but the part I enjoy the most is we organize events such as dances, meetings, pep rallies, and assemblies. Pep rallies is where we can express most of our creativity from how we organize our class section since we make banners, decorations, as well as coming up with class rival games, getting clubs to perform, and introduce that season’s sport teams. As one of the ASB Co-president, our job is to come up with an organized schedule and finalize it with performers and given time for each part involved. Organizing the schedule with performances, announcements, and games involves thinking for the student body in what they’ll enjoy seeing more of. Coming up with games is where we think of new games we have not done in the past as well as creating ones people have never heard of to get the crowd going. After creating the games, we test them to see if we need improvements or any changes to what we made.

As a growing debate, the question at hand is whether great leaders are born with specific leadership traits, or if one can be taught certain traits over time. According to (Wikipedia.com) the approach of listing leadership qualities, often termed "trait theory of leadership", assumes certain traits or characteristics will tend to lead to effective leadership. I believe that leadership traits such as honest, competent, initiative, inspiring, hardworking, intelligent, and the ability to lead the masses, are some of the leadership traits one should possess. Within this paper, I will examine the overall concept of leadership traits, while observing the traits that were, or can be associated with successful leaders.

I can identify the following traits, proposed by Zaccaro, Kemp, and Bader in their Studies of Leadership Traits and Characteristics on 2004, as part of my leadership believes (Northouse, 2016):
