What is a Leader?


WHAT IS A LEADER?

Former leader of leaders, an interesting title as the master developer Leadership is one of the topics covered in this first class was that of the values ​​and competencies of leaders in organizations that transcend, at this point we get the pleasure of to philosophize about the basis of having a leader to be from the most ancient as the Greek which shows the basic elements that would make the individual a fit person to carry out their duties in a healthy body healthy mind where we think about concepts and definition of competition where we learned that competition is not just a game or activity in which someone loses or gains if they are the abilities we have to operationalize different knowledges, skills and values ​​in a holistic manner in the various activities performed either in the personal, social and labor.

Thus leading to envision ways in which leadership by comparing the leadership in antiquity until today where we can distinguish exercised previously based on the power of coercion and is currently looking for the value of persuasion of the above are that a leader is someone who educate, enlighten and drive. And we can clearly see that our leadership is plunged into crisis by the loss of values ​​such as credibility and trust in our leaders why it is so urgent need to promote our values ​​every day, showing a consistency between the words spoken and its activities. We talked about different types of leadership where the leader appreciate ideological, the transactional, charismatic, and the processor where the player came up Mexican "Chicharito" that stands in the place where mention transformative leader that without spending a penny is spoken more that the current president of the republic.

The teacher stopped to perform an exercise with a partner where he performed a simple question but I think so simple that most everyone would know not initially respond Who are you? Where the first thing that comes to mind as they say is to respond with your name, then respond to sex, perhaps with the title and where the response we find that we are individuals, entities and logically thinking indivisible. He commented on the difference between authority and power and the power of charisma as I will have many doors along and saw life as projected by the leader is very important because all the people perceive the leader of three different visual forms, the touch and hearing so it is very important to know how our employees or followers we capture them to reach the best way to learn especially ourselves that way we are able to perceive the environment and people around us.
