Tonights class was very inspiring, we learned all about leadership and what its is. To start off the class Brian had us get into groups of 5 and amongst the group discuss and define what leadership is and what kind of people are defined as being leaders.

There really is no exact definition to leadership but in my opinion I believe that leadership is:

"The ability to make quick and effective decisions in certain situations that influence a group of people or an organization in order to make drastic measures to resolve a conflict"

We then finished off the class by learning about the 5 propositions of leadership, they are:

1. there are very few people born leaders
-people make people leaders

2. a leader must be trusted
-a leader must also trust its followers

3. a leader must always remember the bigger picture

4. leadership can be a lonely place

5. leadership and management are not the same thing

*these five points are very important to remember*

to finish off the night we watched a twenty minute video about a music teacher that is very knowledgeable about leadership skills.

This class was very enjoyable, I would really enjoy more classes or workshops about great leadership skills.
