Let's talk Model

Out of the five, I would have to say that ethics and purposeful were the categories that that I felt most comfortable with.

When it comes to ethics, it’s pretty self explanatory. Each and every one of us lives by a set of rules or shall I say, “Principles”. As I see it, ethics makes up who we are, it defines the morals in which we stand by and influences the way we act and live our lives….In my opinion, talking about the topic of ethics is most comfortable because you’re basically explaining yourself (your beliefs, feelings, and values that justifies your lifestyle).

Moving along….purposeful also caught my attention. This really touches home because I always find myself determined to do something, whether it’s big or small. I like helping others and the feeling of being wanted or given a task to complete is what drives me to be the person that I am. When you think about it, everyone can relate to being purposeful. We are social creatures that tend to rely on each other for help and often, goals or “having a purpose” to do something comes from the needs of those we know or more so, from others around us.

As for the other three, (process, inclusiveness, and empowering) I can’t really speak much about. I’ve never really had much experience/occurrences with these aspects. Yes I’ve realized I’ve experienced being empowered, or going through a process of results, but each of these topics are limited to an extent. I feel I still need to learn more about what it really means to be empowering (beyond the general scope of the term). The same goes for process and inclusiveness. I need to experience more and learn the basis in which leadership is formed upon.

Overall, I see the relationship that these aspects play in part to one another when it comes to leadership. Leadership is based on a relationship of fundamentals and overall knowledge that enables people to lead others.
