Once you understand yourself you can compare what your assumptions are about leadership with those with whom you work. You can then appreciate that others with their differences can also be right. It is very important to know yourself and where your cultural assumptions are coming from.</p><div class="yellowBg"><h3><img alt="" src="/media/ib/leadership/leadership-development/leadership-definition.jpg" style="float: right; width: 200px; height: 98px;" />Activity 1:Leadership characteristics</h3><p>Think about a person you know whose leadership skills you admire. This person can be someone you work or have worked with or someone in your personal life. They do not have to hold a position of authority in order for you to admire their leadership traits. What traits or behaviours does the person exhibit that make you appreciate his or her leadership skills? Try to list four or more traits.</p><p>In groups compare the traits and behaviours and compile a composite list. How many commonalities were in your choices? Use a flip chart to collate the traits using markings to indicate when a particular trait was mentioned a number of times.</p></div><div class="dottedBox"><h4>An example</h4><p style="margin-top:0cm"><span lang="ET">This exercise took an incredible time but provided an incentive for self-reflection.

(Maya Angelou).</p><p>"I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure, which is: try to please everybody."(Herbert B Swope)</p><p>"Where there is no vision, the people perish." (Proverbs 29:18)</p><p>"You manage things; you lead people." (Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper)</p><p>"A leader is a dealer in hope." (Napoleon Bonaparte).</p><p>"Leaders become great not because of their power but because of their ability to empower others." (John Maxwell)</p><p>"Marshalling, focusing and developing energy, information and relationships becomes the role of leaders."

He stays behind the flock, letting the most nimble go out ahead, whereupon the others follow, not realizing that all along they are being directed from behind." (Nelson Mandela).</p><p>"A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent." (Douglas MacArthur)</p><p>"Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it."

(Eleanor Roosevelt)</p><p>"Example is not the main thing in influencing others, it is the only thing." (Albert Schweitzer)</p><p>"Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other." (John F. Kennedy)</p><p>"The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind him in other men, the conviction and the will to carry on." (Walter Lippman).</p><p>"I am not the product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions." (Stephen Covey).</p><p>"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." (John Quincy Adams).</p><p>"When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it." (Henry Ford).</p><p>"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant." (Robert Louis Stevenson).</p><p>"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do; so throw off the bowliness, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." (Mark Twain).</p><p>"As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others." (Bill Gates).</p><p>"If you think you are leading and turn around to see no one following, then you are just taking a walk." (Benjamin Hooks).</p><p>"Don't blow off another's candle for it won't make yours shine brighter." (Jaachynma N E Agu).</p><p>"A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: 'we did it ourselves.'" (Lao Tzu).</p><p>“The people with ideas have no power and the people with power have no ideas.” (Harmon Okinyo)</p><p>“Supreme leaders determine where generations are going and develop outstanding leaders they pass the baton to.” (Anyaele Sam Chiyson)</p><p>“A leader has a great duty.

If you must be without one, be without the strategy." (Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf).</p><p>"Be willing to make decisions. That's the most important quality in a good leader." (Gen. George S. Patton Jr.)</p><p>"The function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers." (Ralph Nadar)</p><p>"The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind in others the conviction and will to carry on." (Walter Lippman)</p><p>A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.” (Arnold H. Glasow)</p><p>“Ultimately, leadership is not about glorious crowning acts. It's about keeping your team focused on a goal and motivated to do their best to achieve it, especially when the stakes are high and the consequences really matter. It is about laying the groundwork for others' success, and then standing back and letting them shine.” (Chris Hadfield)</p></div></div><h3>How are leaders made?</h3><p>Watch the following video - identify what is happening.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/GA8z7f7a2Pk" width="640"></iframe></p><p>Now watch this again but now with commentary - what are the key lessons for leadership?</p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/fW8amMCVAJQ" width="640"></iframe></p><ul class="branded"><li>What is an example at your school where a first follower emerged?</li><li>Or the leadership didn't have a first follower?</li></ul><div class="yellowBg"><p><strong>Is it enough to follow the leader?</strong></p><p>Larry Ferlazzo is a high-school teacher in Sacramento, California.
