Leadership Programme: What makes a good Leader?

In the previous week, we were introduced into the learning about leadership. What we have started off with, however, was looking at what can or what is a good leader? What are their qualities and attributes? Leadership, it has been a major part in making and building our civilization. It has led us to what we are now. Through the leadership and taking part in many people, the contribution we have created the society that we have today. Many leaders have been successful in changing the world. Good leaders that is, however, there can be two definitions or a good leader.  One can define it as a successful leader, whilst the other can be described as a good-willed and kind. With that said, mad dictators in our history can be defined as a good leader as well within the first definition of course. They have been able to manipulate and arise to the status of a leader. However, that doesn't mean the latter, that they were kind, good-willed and or considerating. 

The types of 'Good Leaders' that we ought to admire are those who are compassionate and kind. Those who strive for greatness whilst being humble. There are many leaders that I can think of, however, there is one that I admire a lot.

She was a senator that I supported whilst she was alive, her name is Sen. Miriam Santiago Defensor. She was a tough, mind speaking but humble, kind and respectful to the people that she communicated with. Even being titled as the 'Iron Lady of Asia' she was not only direct but was also quite witty within her methods. She was for me, an inspirational and was one that was to be admired.

With doing so, we were provided with a task that involved us to record ourselves to what we think about a good leader and the characteristics that they would need.
