A leader is one who knows the way, goes the
way, and shows the way. Leadership is the quality of a person to lead or guide.
Leadership involves- administration, authority, control, direction, management,
and power. The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest
things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.
On 25th and 26th July, The Learning House
conducted a Leadership Training in our school for Class 8, 9 and 10 students.
Michelle Welsch, who runs the Learning House was the organiser of the Program.
The students were divided in 7 groups,
consisting of equal number of members with a leader from Learning House in each
group.
It was two days training session. On the first
day, Leaders interacted with all the members of the group asking different
questions and sharing experiences of life. They also conducted different
activities to involve all the members of the group.
The activity was tougher on the second day, as
each student from the group had to go in front and speak on the topic ” We
should choose our future by our own or by others”. Differents students
came up with different opinions and thoughts regarding the topic. Some students
with their group performed drama, some others used props while few did the presentation
only. The activity and the whole training session was very interactive and
productive. We also got rewards for our hardwork and dedication.
In general, Leadership qualities develop over a
long period of time and with continuous effort and experience. Our leaders
taught us all the qualities of a good leader and encouraged us to lead the
society and the nation. Nobody is born a leader. One needs to develop the
skills and abilities throughout the life. Good leadership makes people powerful
and that power must be handle with care.
