Leadership: Wednesday, Period 1, Class 11 (3/25/09)

"We've discussed how we can't make everyone happy," Nathan said. "Now let's discuss one of the reasons why. As leaders sometimes it is impossible for us to help everyone. We may want to, but we may lack the manpower, funds, or ability. We do the best we can, but that's just it: the best we can. Not the best there is.

"It's therefore necessary to prepare yourself for this. This is where your foundation of goals and values comes in. It will help you figure out what to do when none of the options available to you are pleasant ones."

Nathan handed out the class exercise. "Break up into your groups and talk about how you would handle this situation. There are no right or wrong answers, but there is no option where you can wave a wand and make everything okay.

"Here are your groups:

Group 1:
Hoshi Sato
Lee Adama
Peyton Sawyer
Dahlia Mancini

Group 2:
Myn Donos
Inara Serra
Zayne Carrick
Yurika Dōjima

Group 3:
Annja Creed
Tahiri Veila
Ichigo Kurosaki
Naomi Wildman
Yasutora Sado


"I'm here if you have any questions," Nathan said.

Making these decisions was exactly why Tahiri was happy to not be in a position of leadership, but she supposed she'd end up there eventually. She was chewing on her lower lip as she looked over the handout.

Ichigo raised an eyebrow at the handout and placed it back down on the table, not even bothering to look over the list. "I wouldn't remove anyone. I'd step out myself and ask whoever is willing to do the same also," he said.

"I agree," Naomi said quietly, she knew that in Starfleet you had to be prepared to face these kind of scenarios, "If I was in this position, I wouldn't hesitate to remove myself first,"
