Lack of Successful Leaders
In the mid 1900s our world watched as one leader rallied all of his people to a common purpose. His motives may not have been the best but the way way he brought his people together was very impressive. What Adolf Hitler did to accumulate his supporters and carry out his actions is exactly what our world is looking for today. We need someone who has Hitler’s inspiration skills, but would use them for the good of others. Gandhi is a perfect example of what we are looking for. He was able to gain support and use nonviolence as a way of fighting injustice.Gandhi is a great example because he used his leadership skills to promote the common good. Few generations have experienced leaders of his caliber. Today, our world is becoming more and more familiar with the lack of leadership. The sinking of the Titanic in 1912 could have easily been prevented as well as the lives lost during that disaster. According to Gregory P.
Smith the captain of the Titanic, E.J. Smith, ignored seven iceberg warnings from his crew and other ships. We all know why he ignored them. The Titanic was thought to be unsinkable. This thinking caused the crew to only load about half the amount of lifeboats needed to evacuate all of the people on the ship. If E.J. Smith had prepared for the worst possible thing that could happen the Titanic would not be nearly as famous as it is today.
As many know, the ability to lead is a golden skill that few are possessed with. As we glide through history, fewer and fewer people have acquired the leadership skills necessary to become a successful leader. The lack of leadership is why we have so many problems in our world today. Nearly every leader we have today is unprepared to face the challenges the past leaders have left for us to deal with because of reasons I will point out later.
Regardless of where you choose to go with your life, leadership skills will always be of need. If you choose to be a business person, you must be able to lead
