Leadership Observed
A teacher is able to get along with others and respects individuals no matter what there points of view are. A teacher also knows his or her weaknesses just like any other captain or leader does. They both must be hard working people to show that they have what it takes to fill the roles of both teacher and leaders. They must be responsible for there actions and step up when they make a mistake.
The Teacher shows leadership by going out of his or her way by staying after school and helping kids who have fallen a bit behind. They can give advice if a student is going through some hard times and another excellent example of a teacher showing leadership is that one of my teachers said that he used to have a student that wore the same 3 shirts everyday to school and he felt bad so he went to go buy him some more so he could have more clothes to take to school,
My Leadership in Action
I play soccer outside of school and i used to always want to be captain of the team. The coach told us that we are all the captains and that we should all give each other advice when when we have made a mistake. I used to get mad if someone got greedy with the ball and took a shot instead of passing but now i'm just glad we had a shot at goal and tell my teammate good try and encourage him to take more shots. I have been able to be more patient and have controlled my anger when things aren't going my way. I learned to be a little more poised.
Messi has been a fantastic leader and teacher to his teammates whenever he is playing for his country. He stands up for his teammates when they are given a card for something that didn't deserve that punishment from a referee.
Iker Casillas is a perfect example of a leader. He has won everything when it comes to soccer. The World Cup, the Euros and has also lost alot but everytime he has lost with his team he is always positive that they will go out and win it the next time. When he retired from international soccer everyone could tell that he was going to miss his playing for his teamates and for his country, because he could barely talk simply because he was fighting back tears.
