Always put one fine line between leader and subordinates, as to gain their respect. Lack of leader soft skill communication. She’s maybe good in her earlier task – administrative, reporting and others. It might be different, after Jennifer accepts the offer and now it’s all about building up the level of confidence towards her. As it can be done if she has good communication skills apply. But in actual fact, Jennifer tries to please and take care of other people, had trouble in planning, organizing and managing her own time. Since Jennifer was the senior person in the campus and first female interim vice president that has been appointed to this position, she should already understand the organization culture and try to adjust herself with the new culture, gain ‘trust’ from others especially from the new president and others team members. To lead is to influence others. Jennifer needs to influence the president and others to understand and agree about what needs to be done and how they can work as a team to accomplish the campus objectives, mission and vision.

There are many flaws in the actions of the President of the United States using executive action to shape policies for the United States, but congress plays a major role in the reasons why there are so many issues pertaining to the use of executive action. Another flaw is that it is not spelled out in the constitution that the president is allowed to bypass congress on any issues that are not attended to. Congress makes a huge fuss about the president executing his executive actions but congress is the one from the beginning that granted that right to him in the first place. The presidents use of executive action on issues, that when applied, bypasses congress. Executive Actions are used to remedy a fundamental lack of action by congress

The president is the most important job in the United States. Not the ruler of the United States ,but have some power over the country. The president of the United States is a person who symbolize the country and leads the country by making decisions of what is the best thing to do. The president needs to know about the past history such as the conflict of World War I and II and different events that led to violence in our own country. The president of the United States needs to know how the system of the government works and different problems that have been happening right now such as immigration, terrorism and hunger. The president needs to have the people votes so that he or she could be able to have the position of being the president
In 1787 our founding fathers believed that that the general population was not educated enough to select the president of the United State (Bronson, K and Dove, L 2015). This was one of the concerns our founders had when the wrote the Article II, section 1 of our constitution which laid out the framework for the electoral college process that we use still to this day. An article by Bronson, and. Dove” stated that the Electoral College provided security to concerns that the governing people had in this era of our nation’s history to ensure a viable election process, such as the unlikelihood that a candidate would have a national presence amongst the general public.”(2015). Due to the vast geographic distances candidates would not be able to appeal their platforms to the people since there was no televisions or radios throughout the country. The founding fathers even feared that the more populous states would force their influence on the less populate states making the popular voting process not viable to receive the true will of the people(Bronson,K and Dove, L page 1, para 2). These concerns where ligament in that society and era of our nation’s history and the Electoral College process gave security. With key transformations that have accord in our society, such concerns are less prominent. The Electoral College Process no longer protects us from concerns of the past, but directly effects new problems in our current society The Electoral College denies the will of the

No matter the size of the group, every group has a figure that leads them. Leaders need to have leadership; leadership are the skills that a leader uses to move a group forward. It propels the group to move in the right direction. Presidents are leaders of a country, an enormous group, a group nonetheless. A president has to have a transparent leadership in order for the people of America to trust him, if his leadership skills are lackluster, the people will begin to doubt his ability to move the country forward. In this paper, I will try to explore the type of leadership that is needed for the next president of America, what can be accomplished with great leadership skills and how depending the leadership of the next president, will affect
The United States first declared its independence back in 1776. Just a decade later, the Constitution was written and signed on September 17, 1787. To this day, this document represents the supreme law of the United States of America. The first President of the United States was elected on February 4th in 1789. His name of course was George Washington. This was the start of the United States, since then we have had 43 other presidents. Each and every one of those presidents has done something for our country. Whether good or bad, effective or not very effective this is how our country has become what it is today. Since WWII, the United States has had 12 different Presidents that have led our nation and looked over significant events and decisions that have shaped this country.
The President of the United States of America is literally the most important person on this planet. Why, you may ask? Well, that’s because, he is “in charge” of the most powerful and influential country of the world. Every decision he makes, in regard to America, can and will affect every other country in some sort of way. Presidents have so much power that every decision they make becomes news. Now, the next logical question would be, where does all this power come from? Who said it was okay for one person to have so much power? And most importantly, does the president of the United States of America actually have so much power all to himself?
The morning of March 4, 1801, the outgoing President of the United States John Adams left Washington D.C. before sunrise, the morning his successor was to be sworn into office. Criticized for being a poor loser for not staying to welcoming the incoming President of the United States, this quiet event in the stillness of the morning was one of the most profound events in political history and an example of the uniqueness of the American system of government. The peaceful transfer of power.
With the elections coming along swiftly and the hard decision upon us one is left to think. Think about who we will vote for yes, but also why we have this awesome power to vote for our new commander and chief, the person that can make decisions that can alter our future. We the people get to choose who fills this position. Our countries fate is in our hands and I would like to know what gives us this power and why. Why are eighteen year olds allowed to vote and what makes these eighteen year olds qualified to vote. Not just this but also, why do we vote? And most importantly to the men and women that reside in the United States of America, is voting the most rational, and efficient way to choose the man or woman that will run our great country for the next four years?
