Leaders and the Greater Common Good
As leaders in the school and society, we
truly do have within our power the vision and the opportunity to realize a
community where its highest goal is the achievement of the greatest public
good. Our citizenship should model a
just society that is characterized by equality and opportunity for all. As we say in physical education; 'It is your
personal and social responsibility'.
Surely each of you have been inspired by someone in your lives whose
leadership is founded on similarly noble principles. Now is your chance to reflect on those
qualities of great leadership that you've witnessed or experienced and share
the influence they've had on you and your motivation to lead.
This project is, I hope, the start of a
very long journey for you, to discover your vision of the common good and how
you as a leader will contribute to its maintenance and promotion.
Project:
Research (with bibliographic references) a
person you consider to be your model or hero who has committed to a leadership
role in serving the public good. As part
of your research and analysis, you must specify
-
a brief biography of their life
-
their accomplishments in serving the public good
-
the obstacles they had to overcome to serve the public good
-
the methods or leadership styles they used to serve the public good
Include a photo of the person.
