1. the qualities of a good leader are somebody who can handle themselves in stressful situations, give good directions, and know how to spread tasks out.

2. A leader in my family would be my dad, in the school would be the teacher in the class I am in. In the community it would have to be the police and in the state and nation it would be the governors, mayors, and the president.

3. Leadership is a natural born thing because some people develop other talents than what somebody els has and some people don't have the talent to lead.

4. I think i can be both a leader and a follower because i can give directions and i can take them and make compromises while figuring out who has to do what.

1. They are responsible, confident, compassionate, and brave. They don't conform easily to others' opinions, and they listen well to others.

2. My mom is a very good leader in my family. In our school, Mr. Brosz is one of the leaders that everyone listens to, but there are several other teachers who are also good leaders. A leader in our community is the mayor. A state leader is the senator, and the nation's leader is Obama, the president.

3. I think both, because some people are naturally inclined to be leaders, and others can take responsibility to become good leaders.

4. I think it depends on what setting I'm in and who the people I'm working with are.

1. They are organized, get everyone to participate, and have good ideas.

2. In my family, I would have to say my mom is a leader. She keeps the household together and knows how to calm everyone down. In school I would have to say my teacher Mr. Brown. He knows how to communicate well with the students and how to keep the peace with in the classroom. In the community I would have to say that Bill Price. Bill Price is the mayor and he is very nice and knows what is best for the town. In the Nation I would have to say the best leader is the president. He knows what is best for the nation and he does whatever he can to make sure nothing bad happens to the United States.

3. It can be either. I think you can be a natural born leader or you can develop. I say you can develop because you can learn from others on how to become a leader.

4. I would have to say more of a leader. I don't like to be a follower. I think a leader has to be organized and have a plan and I always have a plan and am organized.

1. A person in power and has authority. Also, someone that is loyal and known. I see a good leader as being a hard worker. And a person that can stay on task.

2. My dad is a good leader because he is a hard worker. He has power and authority over my family. In School, Mr. Brosz would be considered a good leader because he has power and authority. And knows how to stay on task. In our community the Mayor would be a good leader. The Nation would be the president who has power and control of what people do.

3. Leadership can be developed. Because you will learn from other people's mistakes and other people's accomplishments.

4. I consider myself a leader. I consider myself a leader because I take action in what I do.

Good leaders respect others, can compromise, not afraid to take a stand, let others voices be heard.

2. Who do you consider do you consider to be a good leader in your family? school? community? state/nation? Why for each?
- Parents: good role models
- Administration, Upper Class men have been through much of what I am going through right now, and can help you along the way.
- Scott Poese- does a lot for the community
- Government Officials- most do what is best for the nation
3. Are people natural-born leaders or can leadership be developed through training? Why or why not?
- Some are natural born leaders, but I do believe in the right setting, a leader can be developed if they set their mind to it.
4. Do you consider yourself more of a leader or a follower? Why?
- I consider myself in most circumstances a leader. I think this is especially true in the classroom setting because I tend to take control (I know how to handle many situations).

1. A good leader must have many characteristics and those must include respect, humility, and be modest.

2. The leader in my family would probably be my dad, because he knows what is going on, in the school it would probably be the principal, because he runs the school and leads us, he also solves the problems most of the time, in the community it would be the mayor, because he was elected by you and he knows what is going on and solves anything usually, in the state- governor, in the nation- president because they were elected and run things usually well and handle things well under stress.

3. Some aspects of leadership can be developed through training but other aspects are natural born it just depends on how determined the person is to learn and develop what other aspects they need to be a leader.

4. Depends on what i do because I see myself as both and if i can help i will and if i need help i can take advice.

1. the qualities of a good leader are, someone who can listen, who can lead, who can take charge, have confidence, responsibility, and organization skills.

2. A leader in my family would have to be my brother, he tends to be able to take charge in a good way and show others what they should be doing. In the school it would have to be Mrs. Gotschall, she seems like she is a good leader. In the community I think it would be our mayor, in the state it would be our senator, and in the Nation it would have to be our president at any time.

3. Leadership can come from anyone, you could be shy as a kid and grow up to be a good leader, but you could also be born with leadership skills.

4. I think personally I am more of a leader, because I can take charge, and i like to do my own things rather than follow someone.5
