The Poly Forums

Well, surprizingly(or not), I am currently in the poly forum team under the theme of leadership. My assignment is to brainstorm leadership qualities. I think, this is some random ineffective way to help us become leaders. Why? As all of you should know, everyone have very diffrent views of leadership and being a good leader. You could actually search youtube and see for yourself.

Although most leadership qualities are simmiliar, in some point, if you follow all of that, it will make you a very demanding person. Lets be fair, we assume, everyone wants to be a leader, but there can only be one leader. So, why bother to compete in a situation that is at your disadvantage?? Eventually, even if you are the leader of that particular group, no one will listen to you. But lets say, you are in the same group, and you let someone else become the leader, you are actually making an ally within the group and that person will unconciously bend his rules towards you.

So what is leadership to me? It's the ability t0 make others follow your decisions with full understanding of what is happening and the leader's views about it. It's the ability to make bad decisions look right(because in life, there is no wrong decisions). It's the ability to know when to move forward and backwards(of course, if you can't do it, take a break). And to give others mental strength.

Those above are not qualities, but they are what I think a leader should possess. So I have finished my homework. And Do Not, make me a leader!!
