GANDHI:

There is a story of a woman in India 1930’s who was upset that her son was eating too much sugar. No matter how much she chided him, he continued to satisfy his sweet tooth. Totally frustrated, she decided to take her son to see his great hero Mahatma Gandhi.�She approached the great leader respectfully and said,�“Sir, my son eats too much sugar. It is not good for his health. Would you please advise him to stop eating it?”�Gandhi listened to the woman carefully, turned and spoke to her son, Go home and come back in two weeks.”�The woman looked perplexed and wondered why he had not asked the boy to stop eating sugar. She took the boy by the hand and went home.�Two weeks later she returned, boy in hand. Gandhi motioned for them to come forward. He looked directly at the boy and said,�Boy, you should stop eating sugar. It is not good for your health.”�The boy nodded and promised he would not continue this habit any longer. The boy’s mother turned to Gandhi and asked,�Why didn’t you tell him that two weeks ago when I brought him here to see you?”�Gandhi smiled,��Mother, two weeks ago I was still eating sugar myself.”

MLK:

had no ambition to become the leader of a movement. When Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger on a Montgomery city bus, on December 1, 1955, King was a twenty-six-year-old minister just a year into his job at the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, in Montgomery, who imagined that he might one day become a professor. The legendary boycott that followed Parks’s arrest was not King’s idea, and, when he was informed of the plan, he did not immediately endorse it. He did after some reflection, though, and offered a room in the basement of his church for the organizers to meet.��On December 5th, a mass meeting was called, to be held in the building of another African-American congregation, the Holt Street Baptist Church. That afternoon, the boycott organizers met in King’s church basement and voted to call themselves the Montgomery Improvement Association. Then, to his surprise, and probably because he was not well known, and no one else was eager to accept the risk of white reprisal, King was elected the group’s president. It was after six o’clock. The mass meeting was scheduled for seven. King rushed home to tell his wife and to write a speech.��It normally took King fifteen hours to write a sermon. For this address, the first political speech he ever gave, he had twenty minutes to prepare. He says in his autobiography that he wasted five of those twenty minutes having a panic attack. Fifteen minutes later, he was picked up and driven to the Holt Street Church.��King’s car ran into a traffic jam five blocks from the church, and he had to fight his way through a crowd of people to get inside. Five thousand or more black citizens of Montgomery had turned out. And, at seven-thirty, after the singing of “Onward Christian Soldiers,” with no manuscript and only a few notes, King got up to deliver one of the greatest speeches of his career.

George Washington:

Os Hillman tells the story of a rider on horseback, who many years ago, came across a squad of soldiers who were trying to move a heavy piece of timber.�A corporal stood by, giving lordly orders to “Heave.”�But the piece of timber was too heavy for the squad.�“Why don’t you help them?” asked the quiet man on the horse, addressing the important corporal.�“Me? Why, I’m a corporal sir!”�Dismounting, the stranger carefully took his place with the soldiers.�“Now, all together boys – heave!” he said. And the big piece of timber slid into place.�The stranger mounted his horse and addressed the corporal. “The next time you have a piece of timber for your men to handle, corporal, send for your commander-in-chief.”�The horseman was George Washington, the first American President.�

Nelson Mandela:

During his imprisonment in Robben Island, the prison in Cape Town harbour, he had to do back-breaking work in the lime quarry. It was a punishment designed to break his spirit. Others around him gave up. Even when the harsh sun on the white stone caused permanent damage to his eyes, he refused to give up. He contracted tuberculosis in Pollsmoor Prison outside Cape Town. Solitary confinement, which drove many insane, didn't break him either. He fought on.

Nelson Mandela joined the African National Congress (ANC) in 1943, as a law student. They campaigned against apartheid, he was arrested in 1962 and sentenced to five years in prison. Later, he was sentenced to life. Solitary confinement almost killed him, but he still preached reconciliation. He had said during the Chief Albert Luthuli Centenary Celebrations, Kwadukuza, Kwazulu-Natal, April 25, 1998, South Africa: “Real leaders must be ready to sacrifice all.”�

How Princess Diana changed attitudes to Aids

In the mid-80s, HIV/Aids terrified the world because of a lack of understanding as well as misinformation .

In April 1987, Princess Diana opened the UK's first purpose built HIV/Aids unit that exclusively cared for patients infected with the virus, at London Middlesex Hospital.

In front of the world's media, Princess Diana shook the hand of a man suffering with the illness.

She did so without gloves, publicly challenging the notion that HIV/Aids was passed from person to person by touch.

She showed in a single gesture that this was a condition needing compassion and understanding, not fear and ignorance.

John O'Reilly was a nurse on the ward at the time of the Princess of Wales' visit.

He spoke to Witness about a landmark moment in the fight against HIV/Aids.

Leadership Put On Display

Must Be Authentic �“A person's character is shown through their actions in life NOT where they sit on Sunday.” ― Navonne Johns (Author/Former Priest)
Example Of Excellence

A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don’t necessarily want to go, but ought to be. —Rosalynn Carter

Promotes Positivity

Outstanding leaders go out of their way to boost the self-esteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it’s amazing what they can accomplish. —Sam Walton

Influences Replication

Become the kind of leader that people would follow voluntarily; even if you had no title or position. —Brian Tracy

Leadership = Body Language, Body Language = Leadership

Tone

Smile

Posture

Positive Gestures

Eye Contact

LEADER OF THE SHIP

We continuously assess the body language of those in leadership positions

Good body language also affects your own self confidence

Tone:

Incredibly, studies have shown that hearing those soothing low tones actually makes people more efficient, while removing the low tones makes people less efficient. Those with the best undertones are natural leaders, and people around them subconsciously match their tones to those of the leader. Have you ever heard the saying, “We’re on the same wavelength”? Whoever made up that saying was right. That’s exactly what happens.

Smile:

Smiling triggers the “feel good” hormones like serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins. In fact, smiling activates the reward center of brain as found in other experiments with drug addiction! These powerful chemicals relax your body, reduce your heart rate and blood pressure, and help you fight off stress. This makes you feel healthier and appear more confident. What’s more, your smile triggers other people’s brains to respond in kind—in other words, a smile is contagious. Powerful leaders smile enough to convey confidence and good will, while creating bonds of respect.

Positive Gestures:

“speech-associated gestures“ complement the words spoken and enhance their meaning. I’m not talking about a thumbs-up or sign language. These symbols convey meaning without words. The best gestures, used by great speakers and leaders, naturally support the words and studies show that these gestures make your words easier to remember and understand.

Posture:

Wonder woman pose. By practicing power poses before presentations or meetings, you boost your confidence and subconsciously tell the audience you’re in control, confident about the future, and able to set goals and act.

Eye Contact:

Powerful leaders instinctively know how long to look at you and how long to look away, and do it naturally. Studies suggest the proper amount of eye contact in the U.S. and many other countries should be between 50% and 60 % of the conversation, mostly when listening.

55% of communication is body language

Survey Results from daviddewolf.com

https://www.inc.com/lolly-daskal/21-core-beliefs-that-will-take-your-leadership-from-good-to-great.html

1. Leading by example. Albert Schweitzer said, "Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing." The people around you are watching your every move and looking to emulate you.

2. Balancing vision and execution. Success requires two interrelated elements: a compelling and clearly articulated vision and the ability to inspire others to work with you in carrying it out.

3. Showing respect. Earning the respect of others is important, but showing respect is the foundation of meaningful relationships--and therefore of leadership.

4. Accepting accountability. Being accountable means that you accept responsibility for the outcomes expected of you, both good and bad. You don't blame others, and you do the right thing even when it's not easy.

5. Committing to courage. Aristotle called courage the first virtue, because it makes all of the other virtues possible. Courage is not the absence of fear but the acquired ability to move beyond the fear when times are tough and challenging, because at the end of the day courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success.

6. Delivering inspiration. If you can inspire a group of people to believe in something, you can motivate them to be in constant state of transformation and to ignore the perceived notion of their limitations. Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence, and making sure it lasts in your absence.

7. Taking risks and learning from mistakes. There's no reward without risk--but even the worst mistakes should never stop you from taking a chance again. Success is all about taking risks.

8. Exhibiting confidence. Confidence is treated as something we're either born with or not, but it can be practiced and learned. Great leaders understand that you must believe in yourself to have the confidence to lead others.

9. Welcoming Optimism. Optimism is a magnet. If you stay positive and optimistic, good things and good people will be drawn to you.

10. Leading with integrity. Integrity is the consistency of your actions, your words, your values, and your moral principles. It's at the center of every true success.

11. Investing in others. When you make the time to invest in others, they will return great value. When you invest in your people you are investing in the future.

12. Encompassing humility. Great leaders remain humble even after they have acquired great success, money, and power. Confidence is who we are on the outside, and humility is who we are on the inside.

13. Contributing through fairness. If you treat people fairly they will likely treat you back with the same. Leaders who are fair and impartial are the ones who are admired and remembered.

14. Maintaining focus. Great leaders live by the acronym FOCUS--Follow One Course Until Successful. They succeed because a concentrated focus determines reality.

15. Manifesting loyalty. The deepest devotion occurs when loyalty is a two- way street. When you lead you need to give your loyalty and give it daily.

16. Embodying honesty. Integrity requires that you be true and honest--and the long reach of electronic media makes keeping secrets a risky proposition. People respect true hearts because they produce honest actions.

17. Honoring trust. The first job of a leader is to inspire trust and build it daily, and great leaders know that trust must be given if it's going to be earned. Leadership is an achievement of trust.

18. Exhibiting appreciation. Everyone wants to be valued and appreciated and recognized for who they are and what they do. As a leader, you must find ways to recognize and reward people when they do great work.

19. Embracing communication. Communication is vital--and that means being not only a great speaker but also a great listener. Great leaders engage directly with what's in front of them, and they never underestimate the power of the smallest interaction.

20. Measuring each moment. Great leaders believe that true leadership is measured in moments, not years. What you do every moment today will influence your future.

21. Leading with character. The things that make you different are the things that define your character, and your character is what defines your leadership.

Exercise Card Connect Game�

→ Everyone must grab a card with an exercise/stretch they feel they can perform�→ Once cards are picked everyone begin walking around the room & listen to instructions�→ Be sure to know what your exercise/stretch is while you are walking around

�GAME OBJECTIVE: One individual must get the rest of the group to do the exact same exercise/stretch as them in the quickest time possible. When leader stops talking or music stops playing 1 person is going to have to decide if they are going to do their stretch (Freeze in your spot to perform exercise/stretch - AKA: Stop Walking)�As soon as you see someone performing a exercise/stretch you have to mimic it

�Next Level: Swap cards with 3 people as fast as possible� → Instead of normal walking you must take sharp turns whenever you want to

change direction. Game objective is still the same.

SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON is viewed as a great leader, but you may not have heard of his story.

Trans-Antarctica expedition of 1914 - 1917

intention was to cross the Antarctic continent from one coast to the other via the South Pole

A distance of about 1800 miles

The shi[ they were set to take was called the Endurance. A newly constructed in a Norwegian shipyard, and had been intended for tourist cruises in the Arctic

Next was to get people to buy into his vision. He had a very famous and brutally honest job posting that was in the paper.

Job Posting: "MEN WANTED: FOR HAZARDOUS JOURNEY. SMALL WAGES, BITTER COLD, LONG MONTHS OF COMPLETE DARKNESS, CONSTANT DANGER, SAFE RETURN DOUBTFUL. HONOUR AND RECOGNITION IN CASE OF SUCCESS.��- SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON"

He got 28 men to come along.

They took off and were well on their way until a thing called ice got in the way. Their ship literally was stuck in the ice.

From December 5th 1914 - April 24th 1916. The Endurance is trapped in ice and then lost.

Over time the ship and ice drifted The Endurance at least 1186 miles

The group could’ve given up. But they turned to the person they called “Boss”. Shackleton had their respect and command. He was their leader.

That the crew kept going during this time was a tribute to Shackleton's leadership skills and his abilities and understanding of the importance of keeping up morale. The whole group were kept together in the monotonous and strenuous task of pulling laden lifeboats across broken up and ridged ice floes.

It was cold. Like single digits to below freezing cold.

Between the freezing temps they ran into other troubles when they would make moves to journey towards land, but ended up drifting off point, or having leaks/cracks in the ship.

Eventually the ship was crushed with the pressure of the ice.

Shackleton led his men to a place called Elephant Island.

Realizing no one was going to find them there Shackleton had a leadership choice to make.

On a 22 foot long boat Shackleton took 6 men to go find some sort of rescue. The other two lifeboats were left with a group on Elephant island to be shelter.

They had struggles with times of ice building up on the boat to baling freezing water that was engulfing the boat. They ate a small warm meal every 4-5 hours. Frostbite and weary men Shackleton still led them on.

They made it to the island of South Georgia, but way off. They would have to trek snow fields, glaciers and mountains up to 4500 feet. While maneuvering they realized they went the wrong way and had to retrace their steps. Shackleton pushed his men on knowing if they did stop and rest they might never wake up again.

With much more that went on they did find a ship yard with other men! They got a hot shower, clean shave, and real food.

Shackleton quickly rounded up a ship to go back and rescue the remaining men on Elephant Island. This steamer of course would run into its struggles as well failing and requiring a donation of 1500 euros to repair and keep going.

BUT THEY MADE IT!

Around lunch time for the men at Elephant Island the steamer found the campsite of men left there. The result was incredible joy!

Overall NO LIFE WAS LOST IN THE YEARS OF THE EXPEDITION

The leadership of Shackleton got the entire group through the craziest of scenarios that would have defeated most. The way he led and kept his men engaged in trial was that of a true leader.

So like Shackleton we have a ship to lead. Mine is this classroom, or the basketball court, or baseball diamond.

What is yours? It’s there. It might not be a big ship yet, but when it is given to you. And you do run the ship be the leader of the ship.
