Leadership in Me

“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more,
you are a leader.” – President John Quincy Adams
We’ve all know that being a leader just not being a leader. If I mention a leader, what
comes to your mind? did someone who lead us? Or anyelse, maybe? I’m Siti Zahra and today
I’m gonna talk about become a leader.
They said for become a leader you need to have leadership traits, but what is the real
definition of a leader and leadership? For me, a leader is the one who can lead us, the one who
can inspire us to be more than you are now, they can make us dare to dream more and make a
movement towards our dream. There’s three things that you have to know about become a
leader, a leader is someone who inspires passion and motivation in followers, a leader is
someone with a vision and the path to realizing it, a leader is someone who ensures their team
has support and tools to achieve their goals. So the role of a leader is coach, guide, and inspire
others.
Wherever you are, you must be ready to be a leader, cause some of people become a
leader in unexpected way. So what’s does it look like to be an unexpected leader? Everyone
wants to see you because they’ve never seen a leader like you before. If you are the
Unexpected Leader people will be curious about you. The Unexpected Leader must strategically
introduce her/himself to the organization. It is important to honor the history of those who led
before you.
Each Unexpected Leader arrives in the position with the confidence, competence,
courage, and calm to lead. However, when you are the Unexpected Leader people question
your legitimacy, because in their minds it was not supposed to be you. Your ideas and decisions
will be challenged. Your intellect and ability to lead will be suspect to some. You may even be
blatantly disrespected.
So, you have to prepare yourself to become a leader, maybe you will be a leader
tomorrow, next week, next month, or maybe next yearso prepare for it.
