This paper focuses on a speech given by Alexander the Great in 326 B.C. The argument that Alexander chose to use was very persuasive to his intended audience. One of the greatest strengths of the argument was that Alexander highlighted the past accomplishments of the men as a means of quelling any concerns that they would fail in their future endeavors. He also uses a very grandiose and broad vision to help inspire the men, talking about taking over all of Asia and then using that example in contrast to simply staying home and protecting the home front. However, the argument also had its weaknesses. In some locations Alexander speaks about them being welcomed by the people in distant lands, but he also discusses forcing nations into submission, making one question which part of the argument is true. Taken as a whole, the argument was a persuasive one, which is revealed, not only by the text of the argument, but by the historical fact that it did inspire his men to continue into Asia.

In order to know the type of skills that characterize a leader one first has to know what a ‘leader' means, but, as Van Wart (2003) points out, leaders vary from age to age and from country to country and cannot be pinned down in a quantitative manner. Definitions and perspective of leadership, therefore, have transitioned through various paradigms from the great man theories that debated whether leaders were born or made, to transformational leadership that asserted that the leader was the one who not only led his follower but also changed him (Schein, 1985). Other historical theories of leadership categories revolved around some of the following: Great Man: that leadership was innate and could not be taught (Pre-1900); Trait: that leadership depends on certain traits (1900-1948); Contingency: that leadership is formed by one's environment (1948-80's); and transformational: that the leader has to be capable of transforming society and individuals. From the 1978to present, the idea was that the leader has to be visionary inspiring others to follow (1978-present); that he has to be a servant (i.e. exemplary); and that leadership consists FO making the follower centeral to the leaser's oriject whatsoever that may be.

(Kellner, pp285-305) He is not afraid to shock or provoke violent reactions in the audience and whatever the type of work it performs (small or large production). (Mitchell, pp41-54) To do so, his production is always the result of a lot of work in which he set up structures to complex camera movements bold and never free, which combined with his knowledge of the assembly allows him to surprise and 'hook the audience like few filmmakers are able. (Grice, pp144)
