Throughout high school, I was involved in Leadership with a variety of activities. It started with class councils, which moved to Leadership class, which moved to ASB, then to State Leadership positions, and then leadership with sports teams. Although I spent hours in classes, at conferences, and practicing my leadership skills, I believe that Christ's example gave me a strong base for my leadership skills and style.
In the New Testament, Christ showed leadership by example. He didn't just tell people to heal leper, he did it himself. He told his apostles that the master is no better than the servant, so as he served, so should they.
In the Church of Jesus Christ today, we try to lead by the same example as Christ did. I believe the only thing a leadership title should show is how much you should serve others. This style of leadership should be shown throughout the world though. As a president, vice president, or even a member of a group or country, it is your job to serve others.
The power of service is unmeasurable. You never know how much a little bit can help.
