 WEEK 3
LEADERSHIP
Leadership is a set of behaviors used to help people align their collective direction, to
execute strategic plans, and to continually renew an organization.

Leaders have a profound impact on their overall work environment. They create an
atmosphere of trust and respect, which in turn fosters creativity and collaboration.
Employee morale is also higher in workplaces with strong management, leading to
greater motivation.

Types of Leadership

Autocratic- makes decisions without consulting team. members.

Democratic- makes the final decision but includes. team members in the decision-making process.

Laissez-faire- gives their team members a lot of options and decision process.

The 10 Characteristics of a Good Leader

A good leader should have integrity, self-awareness, courage, respect, empathy, and gratitude. They should
be learning agile and flex their influence while communicating and delegating effectively. See how these key
leadership qualities can be learned and improved at all levels of your organization.

1. Integrity

Integrity is an essential leadership trait for the individual and the organization. It’s especially important for top-level
executives who are charting the organization’s course and making countless other significant decisions. Our research
has found that integrity may actually be a potential blind spot for organizations, so make sure your organization
reinforces the importance of honesty and integrity to leaders at various levels.

2. Delegation

Delegating is one of the core responsibilities of a leader, but it can be tricky to delegate effectively. The goal isn’t just
to free yourself up — it’s also to enable your direct reports to grow, facilitate teamwork, provide autonomy, and lead
to better decision-making. The best leaders build trust in the workplace and on their teams through effective
delegation.

3. Communication

Effective leadership and effective communication are intertwined. The best leaders are skilled communicators who
are able to communicate in a variety of ways, from transmitting information to inspiring others to coaching direct
reports. And you must be able to listen to, and communicate with, a wide range of people across roles, geographies,
social identities, and more. The quality and effectiveness of communication among leaders across your organization
directly affects the success of your business strategy, too.

4. Self-Awareness

While this is a more inwardly focused trait, self-awareness and humility are paramount for leadership. The better you
understand yourself and recognize your own strengths and weaknesses, the more effective you can be as a leader.

Do you know how other people view you or how you show up at work? Take the time to learn about the 4 aspects of
self-awareness and how to strengthen each component.

NSTP -COORDINATOR
 5. Gratitude

Being thankful can lead to higher self-esteem, reduced depression and anxiety, and better sleep. Gratitude can even
make you a better leader. Yet few people regularly say “thank you” in work settings, even though most people say

they’d be willing to work harder for an appreciative boss. The best leaders know how to show gratitude in the
workplace.

6. Learning Agility

Learning agility is the ability to know what to do when you don’t know what to do. If you’re a “quick study” or are able
to excel in unfamiliar circumstances, you might already be learning agile. But anybody can foster and increase learning
agility through practice, experience, and effort. After all, great leaders are really great learners.

7. Influence

For some people, “influence” feels like a dirty word. But being able to convince people through the influencing tactics
of logical, emotional, or cooperative appeals is an important trait of inspiring, effective leaders. Influence is quite
different from manipulation, and it needs to be done authentically and transparently. It requires emotional intelligence
and trust.

8. Empathy

Empathy is correlated with job performance and is a critical part of emotional intelligence and leadership effectiveness.
If you show more inclusive leadership and empathetic behaviors toward your direct reports, our research shows you’re
more likely to be viewed as a better performer by your boss. Plus, empathy and inclusion are imperatives for improving
workplace conditions for those around you.

9. Courage

It can be hard to speak up at work, whether you want to voice a new idea, provide feedback to a direct report, or flag
a concern for someone above you. That’s part of the reason courage is a key trait of good leaders. Rather than
avoiding problems or allowing conflicts to fester, having courage enables leaders to step up and move things in the
right direction. A workplace with high levels of psychological safety and strong conversational skills across the
organization will foster a coaching culture that supports courage and truth-telling.

10. Respect

Treating people with respect on a daily basis is one of the most important things a leader can do. It will ease tensions
and conflict, create trust, and improve effectiveness. Creating a culture of respect is about more than the absence of
disrespect. Respectfulness can be shown in many different ways, but it often starts with simply being a good listener
who truly seeks to understand the perspectives of others.

GUIDE QUESTIONS

1. Which of the leadership characteristics that you want to develop ?

2. What is your leadership style?

3. Which supporting skills do you think are more important for a leader?

4. How do you manage a conflict situation?

5. What was the hardest decision you have taken as a leader?

6. Being a student leader , a burden or opportunity ?

 WEEK VI
THREE BRANCHES OF PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT

ARTICLE VI Legislative Department

ARTICLE VII Executive Department
ARTICLE VIII Judicial Department

This system revolves around three separate and sovereign yet interdependent branches: the legislative branch (the
law-making body), the executive branch (the law-enforcing body), and the judicial branch (the law-interpreting
body).

The present Philippine Constitution was ratified in 1987 after an overwhelming result of a plebiscite. The Philippines
has a democratic form of government which has 3 branches, the executive, legislative and judiciary.

The Executive Branch is composed of the President, who serves as the Chief of State and head of government, and
is assisted by the Vice-President. The Cabinet is composed of Secretaries who are appointed by the President with
the consent of the Commission on Appointments.

What is the primary duty of President Philippines?

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully and conscientiously fulfill my duties as President (or Vice-President
or Acting President) of the Philippines, preserve and defend its Constitution, execute its laws, do justice to every man,
and consecrate myself to the service of the Nation.

What is the role of vice president in Philippine Constitution?

Aside from the cabinet post, the vice president is mandated to assume the presidency in case of the death,
disability, or resignation of the incumbent President.

The cabinet secretaries are tasked to advise the president on the different affairs of the state like agriculture,
budget, energy, finance, education, social welfare, national defense, foreign policy, and the like.

The Legislative Branch is the bicameral congress composed of members of the Senate and the House of
Representatives. The Senate has 24 members, the first half as determined by popular vote, serves a full 6-year term.
The second half are elected every 3 years. Senators may serve for at most, 2 consecutive terms. The House of
Representatives may be composed of at most 250 members. Members of the House of Representatives may serve
for 3 consecutive terms, at most.

 What is the main role of legislative branch of the Philippines?

The Legislative branch is authorized to make laws, alter, and repeal them through the power vested in the Philippine
Congress. This institution is divided into the Senate and the House of Representatives.

appointed by the President on the recommendation of the Judicial and Bar Council. Members can serve until they
reach 70 years old.

Just to give you a glimpse of how the Philippines works as a nation, we have included this section wherein you can
see most of the services provided by the government. The agriculture section gives you an insight into our home-
grown crops, income-generating livestock and the different government programs that ensure we have sufficient
supply of each of these.

What is the main duty of the Philippine judiciary?

The Judicial branch holds the power to settle controversies involving rights that are legally demandable and
enforceable. This branch determines whether or not there has been a grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or
excess of jurisdiction on the part and instrumentality of the government.
