#4 Leadership

1) What qualities or characteristics make a good leader?

       I think that good leaders have the ability to listen to and combine the member's opinions and make a decision. If a leader immediately made a final decision, the team would be successful.
      And good leader can motivate the other members. For example, if one of the members has trouble, the leader will suggest a new idea and help him. In doing so, he can do next job and be full of motivation.
      Leader can see and coordinate the whole. Sometimes good leader can response and cope with the opposition. If one of the member doesn't consent the team plan, leader will listen to him and struggle  to going well. I think that good leader doesn't abandon and give up. But leader don't command the other people. He can support them, suggest innovative ideas, work harder than all the member, have a vast stock of information.
      Finally, many good leaders are hard workers, and they make extra special efforts not showing and saying those.    




2) Are leaders born or made?
     I think leader can be born anytime anywhere. For example at an elementary school, when children line up in order of height, most children can't remember the order. But  if one child can remember  the order, he can line up the other members. Because he has a special information, the order of height, which the other children don't have, he can help and support the other people. He shows Leadership.

  1. I agree with your opinion that good leader not command the members but can support them. Good leader must be the unsung hero behind his members!
