Re: What Makes A Good Leader?

Coming off my first year as a leader on my team (it was also my second year on the team) let me say being a leader is a stressful job. you have to be able to ensure that everyone knows what they are suppose to be doing and when they are suppose to be doing it. As for passing work off to others, being a leader that is necessary. Had i done EVERYTHING that was needed to do scouting i would have completely flipped out and lost all mental sanity by the middle of my first competition. The biggest piece of advice i have to offer though is If your going to be a leader, be sure you know what your getting yourself into (i sure didnt) and Lead through example, the people you are leading like to see that you are also able to tackle your fair share of work.
