Inspiring leadership at school

Leadership at school
By Taeyeong Kim

In any group of people, there might be a leader who leads or commands the other members. Leadership is one of the skills that those leaders require, and can be performed in various organizations. School is one of the organizations in which the students can develop or practice their leaderships. For instance, by being part of the student government, they will learn how to make a plan for better organization, gather different opinions from students of different cultures and ages, etc. These kind of experiences may help students to use their leadership skills in various situations.

In a group, there would be not only the leaders, but also their followers. The role of followers are as important as the leaders’ role. They should do their best for the tasks given for the group, cooperate with all of the members including the leader, and also learn the leadership behaviours from their leader.
