Introduction to Leadership and Teamwork in class

By the beginning of the session we all introduce to each other and with teacher also, and then we start collaboratively learning.

The 2nd week is like an awesome morning for us to come in the school of leadership and teamwork.
In this session we learnt about the Leadership & Teamwork, importance use and application.
"Leadership is shifting of own vision to higher sights, the raising of man's performance to higher standards" said by Peter Drucker.
It is like a beauty, hard to define but you know it when you see it.
Then comes with difference in "Manager" and "Leader".
Role of a leader: "Initiator, Confidence builder, Coordinator, Motivator, Optimist".
The process of working collaboratively with a group of people in order to achieve a goal is Teamwork.
A team is together everyone achieve more.

Recommended by Mam: "Lead India-The Tree".

This story tells us about how we work together by a team . What we want is only a leader.

How a small kid become a leader of the whole public. Video started by traffic jam due to tree fall in the road . All people were stand there and looking at the tree but no one come across to clear the traffic jam. Then suddenly a school boy came and start pushing the tree aside as to clear the traffic.

Which I liked most: "Best motivational video for ever for leadership".

Why i choose this video clip because of lion's positive attitude with no qualities like other animals has but "The king of jungle".

He is bold, courageous, risk taker and ready to face any challenge.

Mini Movie Fest (Last Samurai)

I explained the movie from two different stops. One from the protagonist's standpoint is Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise) and the other from Emperor and Katsumoto's (Watanbe's) point.

What Katsumoto tells the movie is that values, traditions and customs should not be compromised at the expense of development and / or age. He does not fully oppose the idea of a new military but does not support the fact that the idea of capitalism will help the root cause of Samurai's life. Let me explain how. And this is how I will come to Algren's point of view.

Katsumoto realizes that theirs is the realization of real culture and practices that take place within the corridors of his King's empire at the hands of Western Westerners who have influenced some of his men. Emperor, young and old loves these ideas and thinks it will be a good step for his country. But he does not know how much damage his Kingdom can do.

Now, Algren, a soldier of the capitalist nation, who has taken the world, men and women away from the world, has seen down the philosophies and joined Katsumoto after finding purpose in his life. Aim to find peace, but by fighting a war.

In this way both Katsumoto and Algren try to convey the message that no matter how hard you try, it will hurt your people, their beliefs, and your culture.

Algren, on the other hand, suffers from the effects of war after trauma and tries to find peace. He is considering suicide and his last way of doing this is to enter the battlefield and commit suicide. But life has other plans for him. You learn about the Samurai, their ways, and their ways. the discipline with which they look at their life and how they find purpose and happiness in the little things around them.

Algren is an example of a hopeless and senseless man who finds purpose after seeing another side of life and finds the purpose of repeating it after seeing a woman who forgives him for killing her husband. This is the greatest lesson in Algren's life that we should forgive and strive for a better life.

So, yes, this is what I learned in the movie.

SELF REFLECTION EXERCISE

Write you own definition of leadership using the traits discussed in the previous session. Write this definition thinking that you are a teacher and you want to make it very clear what is leadership to your students. Your peers will read this definition and have the opportunity to rate it.

Talk to students about why you expect certain behaviour (but not at that moment when the behaviour is not under control) or how you organize your class as its leader. Explain how leadership works in your mind and how you would like to share it because good leaders do
