This morning, I attended the leadership training... one seminar I will always remember... one that I did not regret attending. Hon. Jamora was one resource speaker who shared to us more about leadership and effective ways of leading a group. He shared an acronym of "leader" to us.
Listen
Enthustic
Alert
Discipline
Effective
Responsible
A leader must be a listener to his/her followers or members. He/She must be enthusiastic in everything he/she does. In every activity, he/she must be alert. Being a good leader starts with oneself... self-discipline. A leader must be effective in encouraging his/her members in doing things with unity and cooperation. A leader should be responsible at all times especially when it comes to time-management in order to do his/her duties and meet their deadlines. The word "leader" cannot be formed when one of these is missing. It is a stall that cannot stand with one leg lacking. So, you cannot say that you are a leader without learning how to listen.
Another statement from Hon. Jamora: "It is passion that can overcome desire". When you are passionate in doing your duties as a leader, you will not have the desire to be rewarded or recognized. Being a leader is selflessly giving your time, talent and resources for the good of others.
