A servant leader must listen to a person fully without interrupting or judging them. While doing my service at the animal shelter there were two other people doing service. They were prisoners wearing the orange jumpsuit. Although most people would assume they are bad and not to talk to them, me and my group had a conversation with them about the dogs. They showed a lot of compassion about what they were doing. Although it was work they were forced to do they gave it their all. I listened and communicated with them the entire time without judging whatever they might have done. This was showing servant leadership in one of the hardest

According to President Abraham Lincoln, “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man 's character, give him power.” Many people can get through their trials and develop their character, but when they are given power, if will show what type of a person they are. A bad leader is arrogant and leads by fear, and often bends the rules based off of what would benefit them even when it contrasts with what would benefit their community. A good leader is flexible, patient, and rational, and knows how to improve whatever they are in control of and take action. To be a trustworthy leader, compassion, diligence, and intelligence are needed so followers will see the leaders example and try to become more like them. Because bad

With the help from my past experience and knowledge as president, I am able to govern and lead the school more efficiently. SCCA is known by the public in a more positive way now, and that makes me proud to say that I will be graduating from SCCA. Becoming ASB president is my most proudest achievement, and I am very upset that this is my last year of high school, but I can honestly say that I’m glad I got the chance to get my high experience at SCCA. I hope that in the future when I visit SCCA, as a college student, the school will be better than it is now, and that the legacy that I’ll leave behind will be remembered

Leaders are expected to act consistently with their vision and the values they advocate to their team. If a leader’s words or actions are contrary to the values they expect in others, they will be faced with cynicism and contempt. Followers expect their leader to act in their best interests, putting their welfare before their own. An ethical leader is honest, open and truthful to their followers. When leaders lose this trust, their followers will quickly disregard them.

An important key to success is to surround oneself with people who will support and encourage that person to do his or her best. Because this community is dedicated to going above and beyond in academic achievement and service, it will be a great support system to be involved with. By being in a community that is closely connected, I will have fellow students to learn and grow with. Believing that each person is unique in his or her own way, I am open minded to embracing the beliefs and lifestyles of those around me. I view other’s differences as a way for me to grow my knowledge to further understand the world around me. Overall, the 1794 community has a positive spirit that strives to always help others. I currently live by the same principles of this community by striving to help others and do my best in all areas of my life. Being surrounded by people who share these same daily goals will contribute to my success at The University of

To be a leader, one must have certain traits that contribute, in a good way, to their leadership. An example could be persistence. What is a leader without persistence, what would be the point of them doing anything at all? Bravery is another valuable trait to have. In order to be a leader, you must be brave enough to stand for what you believe in and what you want to change, even when the outcome may seem bleak. One more essential trait: motivation. A leader simply cannot be a leader if no one is motivated to follow them. An example of a leader who exhibits all three of these characteristics in a great way would be Martin Luther King Jr. He was an African-American man who lived in a segregated time and place. Quickly, King became a leader

There are numerous characteristics of leadership, some of which include: confidence, initiative, good communication, responsibility, compassion, and being open to change; each of theses traits contribute to the quality of a leader and are important factors because without them inadequate decisions can be made (Satterwhite).

I have been volunteering in the New Albany community since 2012. I started by helping out at the local church, Five14. At Five14 I watch the kids while their parents go to the service. While watching the kids I am responsible for the task of teaching these children about God and Jesus. This a a positive and productive activity because I am able to work hand in hand with these young children and I get to see how I can help change their life with the help of God. Ever since I have started helping at the church I have seen lives being changed every week because the kids are now trying to use God in their lives everyday. This then contributes back to the community because when the kids start to change and act in better behaviors at a younger age it helps them to not grow into bad habits and bad choices later in life.

“The superior man thinks always of virtue, the common man thinks of comfort,¨ (Confucius). Virtue is showing high moral standards and finding the perfect balance between excess and insufficiency. A virtuous leader makes decisions that are not only in their best interest, but the best interest of their people. Society has prepositioned people to believe a successful leader is a 'good' leader, but many great leaders are manipulative, deceptive, and corrupted. On the contrary, people can show virtue and hold themselves to a high moral standard but not have leadership capability. Consequently, a virtuous leader must show virtues that not only make them honorable but capable of leading people. Virtue and success are often confused when it comes

Compassion: I demonstrated compassion when I took on the role as a leader. When I went into a patient's room and got right to work, I was showing leadership. My leadership role came from the compassion I had to help the patients I was working with. I enjoyed getting right to work and finding as much for me to do as possible. I also demonstrated compassion when I helped my fellow classmates. If my partner or another student in my class needed help, I would lend a hand as much as possible.

Leadership is often defined as the ability to motivate a group of people to accomplish a task. Leaders, both good and evil, have been accomplishing this daunting task since the beginning of time. Which brings us to the question of the relationship between morality and leadership. When studying great leaders from history it is apparent that many men considered evil are also considered highly effective leaders. This indicates that the characteristics of an effective leader transcend morality. Three characteristics that are crucial to effective leadership and can be observed in leaders, both good and evil, include communication, courage and loyalty.

3.Establish Trust - Establishing trust is an essential part of being a servant leader. Leaders who display sincerity, integrity, and candor in all their actions will inspire trust from followers. In the age of corporate scandals, a CEO's integrity has been tainted and employees feel less inclined to instinctively trust their leaders, making honesty an even more crucial part of
