Course Motivation
This is the fundamental problem with attempting to define what leadership is. One leader is another person's follower, and, while one leader may possess the right qualities for leadership, another may use them better.
Despite this, we will look at the qualities of a leader and determine which qualities are the most essential and which are only secondary.
Essential Qualities
Secondary Qualities
There are so many secondary qualities that a leader needs, it is nearly impossible to list them all. However, here are a few of the most important secondary qualities that a leader should possess:
True leaders will have a deep satisfaction about what they have done to change the world. They will know that they did their best when they were called upon, and that they went into it with certainty, conviction, and patience.
What Does It All Mean?
Real leaders are those that do not need followers, or do not pursue them. For real leaders, followers simply show up because they are drawn to the individual. There are plenty of pretend leaders and real leaders, in the world, and the trick is to look through the facade to find the underlying qualities.

It also gave me so many examples of both good and bad characteristics so that I can recognize the traits that I want to hone in on as well as the traits I would like to leave behind. The essays challenged my thought processes. Thank you for this well put together class." -- Kimberly L.
