What is Leadership?

I think there are so many different kinds of leadership, but the kind I most resonate with is leading by example. I believe that sometimes a leader doesn't have to be the one that is loud and speaks out first all the time. I think that some leaders are better by leading through example. When someone else in the group sees you doing the right thing, they will follow. I think a good definition of a leader is someone who leads a group, considering all other group members' ideas, in striving to complete a common goal. I also believe that the best leader should not be the one watching other people do the work or the service, but they should be participating with the group. This is what King Benjamin did: "And even I, myself, have labored with mine own hands that I might serve you." (Mosiah 2:14) I believe one of the most important parts of leadership is to serve the people you work with and ultimately help them. I hope that as I go through this class, that I will be able to become a better leader myself.
