A Leader A Believer
A Leader A Believer
Leaders should give hope and nurture dreams.
A leader who cannot speak of the future and convey a dream is a person who is not qualified as a leader. Organizations led by a leader cannot always navigate the calm seas. There will be times when rainstorms and storms strike, thunder and lightning strikes, and waves like a pile of mountains hit the boat. Sometimes, there will surely be a desperate case of aground on an uninhabited island and waiting for rescue. It is leadership that shines in such a crisis.

So there is a saying, "The best ship in times of crisis is leadership." In 1911, British colonel Robert Scott, led by seven men on an Antarctic expedition, arrived in Antarctica, but were trapped in ice and lost contact for nine months. And in November of the following year, Captain Robert Scott and his seven crew were all found dead. In Scott's diary found in the snow,' We will die like a gentleman, and, unfortunately, I don't think I can write any more diaries.
Difference between the living and the dead
The difference between the living and the dead was the only difference in'dream'. Shackleton made them shout out loud every morning when they open their eyes to the crew who are tired of fear and hunger in the cold of minus 40 degrees. 'Tomorrow, we will surely be rescued!' After making them shout out loud, he encouraged the crew. Tomorrow we will surely be rescued, so what should we do today? To survive until tomorrow, you must first have'water' and'food', and in this cold weather, shouldn't we have to'maintain body temperature' to keep the body warm? They melt ice to make water, and they use a fishing needle' with a sharp skewer bent. Caught fish and seals to secure food. He peeled the skins of the animals and dried them, then burned them to maintain the body temperature. So, for “1 year and 7 months,” they overcame the extreme situation and met an emotional ending in which all of them survived.
‘Follow me’
Leadership can change or have different results depending on the trend of the times, cultural differences, social changes, and organizational characteristics.
Every question about leadership is not what kind of leadership you show, but who becomes the leader.
In other words, even though leadership changes and changes, great, outstanding leaders must always exist and appear.
There are three items, you must have to become a great leader.
1. Characteristics-Personality (what kind of person)
2. Situation-knowledge (how much do you know)
3. Function-Mission (What does it do)
First, typical traits suitable for an organization or group (courage or valor in the army) gather to form the necessary prerequisites for leadership.
The general traits of great leaders (enthusiasm, sincerity, warmth, courage, judgment, strong but fairness, etc.) are also a prerequisite for leaders.
Second, leaders need ‘knowledge’ to take appropriate actions in specific situations, not innate traits such as personality or personality.
Knowledge is also an essential condition for leaders to have.
Third, the leader must be clear what he is going to do.
In other words, the leader is responsible for planning, task, control, support, information provision, and evaluation.
It emphasizes the value that moves the hearts of members of the organization and the people who make up the group, that is, belief.
Fourth, we need to make people feel that they are respected as a person.
You must show your leader's respect by treating people with dignity and using wisdom, judgment, and discernment.
You become a great leader when you are creative and lead people to take the lead.
Finally, the author states that the most important role of a leader is to save hope.
The leader is the dealer of hope.
But the hope must be honest.
If you paint an unrealistic picture of the future, it will be counterproductive.
Good leaders are no optimists or pessimists, but hopeful realists.
After all, leadership is creating and maintaining an atmosphere of hope, and this is the basis for success.
Do you want to be an outstanding leader in your organization?
The important secret to making my person who is the real leader? "A leader is a dealer in hope," Napoleon said. A statement on leadership:
“The pessimist complains about the wind, The optimist expects it to change. The leader adjusts the sails.”
There is. Humans cannot control the wind, but sails can. Leaders should not just complain about the environment, but do something that can overcome the environment. Someone made a toast at a place in the triangle. The slogan was “a plane”. The content was, "If you act with a vision, miracles happen." Also, the difference between the two expeditions is that it is the' airplane' that suits the leader.
At the end
when the wind is calm, the sunlight is brilliant, and all the crew members do their best, the captain just needs to rest. It would be okay to quietly divide the organization. In this case, even a very poor person can play the role of a leader. However, if the waves are strong, rain and wind blow, and typhoons and heavy rains pour in, the leader has to do the right thing. And we need leaders who can overcome and respond to these crises. In this situation, if the leader blames only the weather and takes no action, he has to step down from the leadership position. “The truth of leadership is how you function in a crisis only by testing it.” It is to be able to find a true leader in a crisis.
