Leadership and Teamwork

I believe that leadership is using your skills to support and guide others in areas in which you are talented. Leadership also entails listening to others when they know more than you. Leadership is defined as a “process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task.” Teamwork to me means working together with others and supporting each other through our individual skills and abilities to accomplish whatever tasks come to us. Teamwork is formally defined as “the capability to comprehend and recognize the diverse strengths and abilities in a group setting and then applying them to one final solution.” Both of these definitions are quite similar to mine.
