What Makes a Leader "Good"
Why Some Leaders Are Better
Some people are better at being leaders because they’ve practiced, like learning how to ride a bike or tie your shoes. They know how to cheer others on, and they’re good at helping the group work together. It’s kind of like having a magic wand that makes teamwork feel easy and fun.
Others might be really strong or smart, but if they don’t know how to help people feel confident, they might not be as good at leading, it's like being a big dinosaur who forgets to share his toys!
Examples
- A teacher who inspires students to do their best is like a good leader.
- A parent who helps their child feel safe and supported is showing leadership skills.
