Synthesis Essay Examples
Synthesis Essay The world is filled with very effective leaders. In order to be an effective leader, one must have a lot of ambition. They must be confident in what they do and be more feared rather than more loved. A leader must be confident in what they do. If a leader isn’t confident, they can’t lead at all. For instance in source A (the cloud notes), it says a leader should be able to lead groups comfortably. This shows that a leader needs confidence to lead people to do things. If one isn’t confident, how can they lead anyone to do anything huge? They can’t. Without confidence, one isn’t very sure of what they’re doing. Another example of why confidence is needed is in source D (TED talk: Everyday leadership) when

While clearly he doesn’t have a lot of confidence, he has enough to give the lollipop to the girl. Every leader needs confidence because without it, they can’t do anything big or important in life. When a person does anything large or extensive, they need confidence because they feel like they can do it and so then they do it. People feel that when they have confidence, they can do anything. In source E (my personal choice book), Johnis, one of the main characters, is not the world’s most confident person, but in fact, quite the opposite.

This shows that leaders must keep their subjects in line so war doesn’t break out. The second prince (the one who destroyed the country) must’ve had too much mercy and therefore didn’t have a whole lot of respect. If a leader wants to gain respect, they must govern their people well and not be afraid of them liking them or not. Another example of this is in source B when Machiavelli starts talking about how a leader should be between cruelty and tenderheartedness. This shows that if a leader is too tenderhearted, their followers won’t take them seriously, but if they’re too cruel, people will simply start hating them and he and his people will be annihilated. One must fall in between the borders of respect and mercy. Once a leader does that, their subjects will not only respect them but also like them. But a leader must not be overconfident. In source C (speeches from Julius Caesar), Mark Antony says Brutus is a well-respected man and is right; except he says it in a sarcastic tone. Likewise if a leader is so confident they think they can do no wrong, their subjects leave them because they know that they aren’t perfect. But once they commit a wrong, everyone freaks out. They believe that their dominant one always knows what
