Lead For Control, Acknowledgement or Duty

Kadek Yoga Pramartha (1212021029)

            Viewed from their intentions, leaders are visualized as one of these three major figures. The first one is a leader who uses his authority to control others. He will always act as the only one who has rights and never consider the others. He will use his authority to fulfill his will and orders his people to do whatever he wants. He also considers others as slaves that he can command rudely. This kind of leadership is most likely ended with coup d’etat, like Libya’s leader Moammar Khadafi and Egypt’s Housni Moubaraq. The second one is a leader who seeks popularity. This leader will try to act as good as he can to attract the mass and put their trusts on him. He will use his authority to promote himself by campaigning his good sides and hiding the problems he has. This will raise people’s trust. The reason why he does these is because he considers the people as enemies who may take over his leadership so he has to keep their trust. The last kind of leaders who is hard to find these days is a leader who dedicates his life to take responsibility for his people. He will act as firm as he can to keep people’s rights justified. The authority he has he will use to improve the prosperity of his people instead of using it for his advantages. This kind of leadership will show us a horizontal relationship between the leader and his people instead of the traditional vertical relationship since he considers his men as the part of the organization that can help it improved. It can be inferred that his principle is “to take responsibility and gain prosperity”.
