Leadership: Wednesday, Period 1, Class 1. (1/7/09)

"Morning everyone," Nathan said. He took a spot at the head of the class. He was, as near darned always, dressed in a suit. "I'm Mr. Petrelli. For anyone here who might be close with my brother Peter, I'm still Mr. Petrelli."

Nathan handed out the syllabus and class rules. "Here's the overview of the class for the semester. Make sure to read it as OOC rules are in there too. Because I'm a lawyer there is the fine print of classes being subject to change at any time.

"Today's class is going to be very easy though. First, I want everyone to introduce themselves with their name and why they're taking the class. Second?"

Nathan sat down behind his desk, looking for all the world like he was done for the day. "Someone needs to be in charge of this class. Let me know if you figure out who that is."

"Is leading versus following always a choice?" Nathan asked.

"I think it is, though I don't always think about it before making a choice," said Hoshi.

"That's interesting," Nathan said. "Do you think leading could become as much of a default option for someone as following could?"

"I'm sure it could. People usually follow the same patterns, but with enough training and motivation, they can learn to follow a new pattern," said Hoshi. "At least, that's how it works with speech, but I'm sure it's applicable to other things."

"What do you think starts the pattern?" Nathan asked.

"Previous experiences," said Hoshi. "I didn't have a whole lot of leadership opportunities at home. My parents, grandparents and tutors told me what to do, and I did it."

"Since you're in this class do you think you'll change your mind?" Nathan asked.

"I really hope so," said Hoshi. "It would make it really tough otherwise to be a Starfleet bridge officer."

"True," Nathan said. "Okay, Hoshi. Thanks for your thoughts."
