Leadership True leadership

A leader is someone who has the ability to influence others in order to achieve a common goal. A true leader for that matter is one who does not have selfish interests but the interests of those whom he or she relates with (Dr. Woodroffe Noel, 2012). This best describes John Wesley, the founder of 'youth with a mission'.

Considering the fact that the organization mostly dealt with people from all walks of life and in a foreign land; which meant having to cope with language and cultural barrier, John Wesley with the help of his professional team managed to bring the youth together in an effort to eradicate abuse of drugs which was quite rampant in that society among other vices. Not even his retirement has deterred his team from pursuing to accomplish the core mission of zero tolerance on the mentioned vices. This is true to Myles Munroe teaching on leadership which he stated that, "the mark of a true leader is seen when even in his absence, things go on as usual."

In addition to this, he made sure that his expectations as the leader were clearly communicated and associated with the vision, mission and values of the organization.
In order to maintain the high integral values of the organization, John had the ability to conduct the following with so much ease:

1. An annual performance evaluation: that is, did they achieve their target? And what challenges did they face? Among other things was mandatory as it helped him in establishing precise and quantifiable goals in future.

2. Behavioral assessment; these include, time management evaluation and personal discipline to the values of the company was also key.
