Document Summary

Instead of choosing to change my definition of leadership, i want to add to it. A good leader uses his/her communication skills and positive attitude to bring a team of people together in order to accomplish a common goal. Leadership also may require teaching/mentoring team members in the skills necessary to meet the goal. In addition, a good leader communicates motivational information to team members and leads by example. A good leader also lets his/her personal character show through in these communications and inspires team members that they can accomplish more as a team than they can as individuals. Leaders may also need to have the courage to stand alone when no one understands their tactics. In my opinion, the ability of a leader to empower and encourage employees in all aspects of their work and life is one of the most crucial aspects to leading.
