fandomhigh | Leadership: Thursday, Period 1, Class 2 (9/11/08)

"In last week's class gave us a snapshot of what we'll be covering over the rest of the semester," Nathan said as he passed around the day's handouts. "Good leaders are not mindless leaders. They are leaders who look at the angles and ask the basic questions. Should they be in charge? Why? How?

"Today we're going to start on the how." Nathan moved back to his desk. "As you can see in your handouts, there are different kinds of leadership styles. Some of you showed the styles that you're more comfortable with last week. In today's class I'd like you to pair up and embody these styles. Pick at least one each, and use those styles on each other. The leadership challenge that you're facing is whether or not there should be coffee available for next week's class. Doesn't matter what position you pick. Just use that leadership style to come to a decision and try to implement it.

"Two announcements before you get started," Nathan added. "First, Meg is going to be the TA for this class so if you need any help in that area talk to her. Second, Student Council Elections are coming up. As you can imagine that's pretty closely tied to what we're working on in class. So if anyone here tries out for Student Council, I will give you extra credit." Nathan grinned. "It's not a requirement that you win, only that you try. I have forms up here if anyone needs them."

"It can run in families--ours is pretty strong in the Force--but I'm his only kid," Ben said with a small smile. "Jedi can be found in a lot of different species, but being Force-sensitive isn't exactly common."

"What does it mean to be Force-sensitive?"

"There's a whole philosophical answer," Ben said, "but basically it means I can do stuff like this." He held out his hand, concentrated, and the pen on his desk lifted up and began spinning.

"Okay, that's just cool," Joan decided.

Ben grinned. "You think so?"

"Absolutely!" Joan said. "Can you move anything like that?"

"I'd get in trouble if I tried it on, say, a sun, but yes."
