Mere minutes after President Jimmy Carter was out of office, the Iran Hostage Crisis, for which his presidency is most remembered, was over. Behind him was a disjointed foreign and confused domestic policy. When he left office, Carter’s approval rating was 34 percent, and his disapproval rating nearly twice that (Roper Center). Today, it seems that he is a better ex-President than he was a president, as evidenced in his founding of the Carter Center, his cultivation of his presidential library, his contributions to Habitat for Humanity, and his numerous other humanitarian efforts. During his term, he had a poor relationship with Congress, a low approval rating with the American people, and a lack of cohesive international or domestic policy. I believe his two greatest failures are also the two which marked his entire presidency and caused the drop in his approval ratings: the confused and faltering domestic and international policies which lasted throughout his presidency and the Iran Hostage Crisis.

In John Steinbeck's "The Leader of the People," a theme that is portrayed throughout the story is that of the contrast between dream and reality. In the story, Grandfather cannot come to grasp that his dreams of the West and moving across the plains are over and that reality has set in. Another story that contrasts dream and reality is Ambrose Pierce's "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge." In this story, Farquhar cannot tell the difference between dream and reality until the very last second, when he is hanged.

A strength of the current primary leader is his communication to the management team or staff. He spends time routinely rounding to speak to the team. He meets with his direct reports each week and spends time with them to support them and communicate how he would handle any issues they may be dealing with, and do not have solutions. During the management bi-weekly meeting, he speaks to the team regarding executive session content from the prior week or current challenges or topics he feels needs to be addressed. Then each manager team member is called upon to speak about their department and what current volume or daily processes or which priority their department has focused on for the day. The team also talks about any specific projects or upcoming needs in their departments. The leader is typically clear and succinct telling or reminding the team what or how to continue achievement of the facility goals. He can lift the mood with humor sometimes, and he stresses the seriousness of other messages. The primary leader shows his passion or commitment when communicating with the management team (Zenger, J., & Folkman, J. (2013). He meets with his direct reports each week to keep them in agreement with his beliefs or goals. Newer leaders and staff tend to respond to his confident message even more than the leaders or staff that have been with the hospital long term.

I simply stood there and stared down at her for several long moments! My brain was spinning furiously trying to wrap itself around the implications of her words.

plain, therefore, that when a tyrant grows naturally, he sprouts from a root of leadership and from nowhere else” (Bloom, 565d). When a leader gains the support or has the fear of his followers, they get a god-like sense and assume they fit the role of a “dominant” leader. Having a strong leadership trait is important in gaining support for your cause. A persuasive speaker may be able to convince people to do bad things, while actually convincing them that they are doing what is right. “The tyrannic man himself remains to be considered--how he is transformed out of the democratic man, and, once come into being, what sort of man he is and how he lives, wretchedly or blessedly” (Bloom, 571a). Plato acknowledges that a leader has a choice on how

Mangus, thinking they were through for the day, walked over and reached for the door knob when Balthazar suddenly asked him to stay because he had something more to tell him. He began explaining about the two factions that existed within the Order of Vilgoth and indicated that there was some kind of disagreement on how they should have him regain his empire. He was the leader of one faction and Sara the other. He hinted, without really coming out and saying it, that his faction was the only side to trust with his future. He had no idea why Balthazar would warn him about Sara’s loyalty. After what they had been through getting to Sagera, Sara seemed more dependable and loyal than anyone else. He felt certain he could trust her with his life and already had. Puzzled by his malign insinuation, he headed back to his room deep in thought. He physically bumped into Captain Bishop in the corridor. He quickly offered his apology. Bishop politely asked him how his training went and he told him he had successfully knocked Balthazar off his feet. He thought his first day had went very well. Captain Bishop laughed at the thought of the o so proper Balthazar on his behind and encouraged him to keep up with his training. With time and patience, he would eventually master all of his skills. Unexpectedly, Bishop asked him if he would like to spar with him inside the barracks, and suddenly forgetting how tired he was, he replied. “Why not?” Walking through the courtyard
