Leadership - What Leaders Do and What Constituents Expect

My personal best performance or behavior as a leader was assigned as a head boy in my high school. My responsibilities included sharing my thoughts about the school issues and making recommendations on certain student concerns. As I was closely working with the student matters, the school principal and management took my inputs seriously to make amendments in their future policies sometimes.

What made it my best performance as a leader was that I was able to facilitate teamwork among all the prefects of the classes and align them towards maintaining discipline throughout the school. I became aware of the operational as well as strategies duties of my position since it gave me a sense of empowerment with resolving issues, communication, persuasion, astute judgment, flexibility, active listening, making changes for student benefits, and problem-solving were some of the key traits required for this position (Marcketti & Kadolph, 2010; Sutcliffe, 2013).

The experience alignment with the leadership role that I was assigned made me a role model for the entire school. The leadership activities that I was engaged in helping me improve outcomes for the school alongside giving me strength in behavioral, cognitive, and social dimensions. As I was involved in collaboration and teamwork, I instilled team spirit among prefects and saw their productivity growth with consistent engagement (HBU Online Couse Development, 2019; Braschler, 2015).
