Crimea: Paradise Divided Essay -- Ancient History

â€Å"Crimean history would suggest that it is folly to think that possession of any place, especially paradise, is anything other than a tenancy† (Newman, 2011).Crimea may be compared to paradise, the crowning glory of many an empire, and it is no wonder with its subtropical climate, fertile lands, soft meadows and sprawling coastline. But the very aspects that make an Eden out of the Crimean Peninsula have also been the causes of struggle and conflict. For it may be said that Crimea is a contested land in an identity crisis and is the subject of much debate still today. Divided by conflicting ethnicities, passed through the hands of the ancient Greeks to Ukraine and left battered by three major wars, Crimea truly is the jewel of many crowns (Newman, 2011). The period between 1 B.C. to 1475 set the stage for what was to become Crimea’s legacy. It was the rich resources offered by the peninsula that first attracted the Greeks in 1 B.C. (â€Å"Crimea,† 2011). Crimea soon became an important source of wheat for the kingdom (Rubel, 2003). However, the Greeks were unable to maintain a firm hold on the peninsula and were constantly warding off invaders. It became apparent that Crimea was not to stay in the hands of one group for long, a fact that has been the bane of many empires ever since. First the Goths and then the Huns, Slavs and Mongols following in succession invaded Crimea over the next thousand years (Crimea). Each fought to achieve control over what many deemed as paradise. The Romans were not to be left out either. By establishing protectorates and naval bases, they capitalized upon the fact that Crimea was an excellent area to position a navy and created the earliest ancestor to the Black Sea Fleet (Rubel, 2003).

Compare and contrast two poems that contain different representations :: English Literature:

Compare and contrast two poems that contain different representations of school pupils. 'Comprehensive' is a representation of a comprehensive school, in the way that the diverse mixture of cultures are included in the poem. Each pupil has a different life and culture, and the pitfalls of comprehensive schools are clearly shown by the way in which each pupil is represented. The first pupil is African, and homesick, and is not happy in England. It seems as though she misses her culture, and feels as though she is being stifled by the British culture. This is also true of 'In Which The Ancient History I learn Is Not My Own.' The boy represented in this poem is homesick, and also feels stifled by the British culture, due to the fact that he is being almost forced into it, thus not allowing him to enjoy his own Irish culture. The teacher wants him to learn 'The English Kings, the famous battles and God's grace in History' which causes him to begin to forget his own History, which he is desperately trying to hold on to. The second pupil in 'Comprehensive' is a boy named 'Wayne,' who is depicted as a stereotypical boy. He is precocious in the way he thinks he is 'too old for games' and believes he is old enough to support something so controversial, when clearly he does not understand it to a full extent. He holds a very patriarchal view, especially when it comes to women. He believes that they are there to have their knickers pulled down, as it were and cook for him. Such a strong attitude as this for a pupil of only fourteen years of age inevitably will cause friction between him and his peers and teachers. And in a school of mixed culture, this would not bode well. Although the teacher has not such a derogatory attitude as Wayne, she is similar in the way that she has very strong views that she places upon the young Irish boy in, 'In Which The Ancient History Is Not My Own.' The Teacher is very patriotic, and expects the pupil of a completely different culture to be the same about England. An example of this is when the teacher describes the Roman Empire as 'the greatest Empire ever known- until our time of course.' This is the kind of attitude that is almost stripping the boy of his patriotism of his own land, and restricting him from learn about his own History. He has had to take on another cultures history and been forced to take it on as his own. Similarities can be made between the young Irish boy and 'Ejaz' and

Capital Punishmennt Essay

Merriam-Webster online dictionary (2011) defines capital punishment as punishment by death for a crime. There are many factors that go into the process of capital punishment and it must start with a crime followed by an arrest, trial, conviction, appeals process and ultimately the execution of the individual. Through the many stages of the process there numerous individuals who are affected, including the criminal and their family, the victim and their family, jury, judge, witnesses and administrators or physicians who perform the execution. In this paper I will look at the ethical issues of capital punishment using the following ethical theories: utilitarianism, Kantian ethics, and the rights and justice theory. In each of these theories I will examine how advocates and opponents to capital punishment can use the theories to validate their position on capital punishment. I will conclude my paper with my position on capital punishment using one of the theories I listed above. According to Boatright (2012) the principle of utilitarianism is the basic premise of pleasure over pain. Utilitarianism considers the impact an event and outcome will have on everyone and they use the fifty-percent theory as the tipping point in decision making. If the pleasure of an event has more benefit than the pain then a decision can be made. Utilitarianism only considers the benefits and consequences when taking into account whether the death penalty is ethical and disregards the natural rights or self-worth of a person when deciding if the death penalty is ethical (Bedau, 1980). The pleasure over pain principle in capital punishment must consider the impact it will have on everyone involved and according to Boatright (2012), â€Å"Utilitarianism requires that we calculate utility not only for ourselves but for all person affected by an action.† When deciding whether or not capital punishment is just an individual must look at the benefits and consequences of everyone involved and determine if capital punishment is ethical. I do not think that one person can make this decision as it would require them to think on behalf of individuals or groups who they may have a conflicting interest with. An example of this would be a sibling of a murder victim deciding if the offender should receive the death penalty. Their feelings on the issue would differ from the offender’s family and create a conflict of interest when using the fifty-one percent theory. I will now examine the utilitarian principle of consequentialism and how it relates to the ethical issue of capital punishment. A consequentialist argument uses deterrence as a benefit of how the death penalty can promote their stance (Douglas and Wilkinson, 2008) and executing a murderer would serve as a possible consequence for the killing of another human being. This may serve as a deterrent to future killings but that is not always the case. Out of 238 paroled offenders who committed murder, less than 1% went back to prison for committing another murder (White paper on, 2012). This statistic shows that the death penalty does not serve as a deterrent to future killings and thus the theory of capital punishment serving as a deterrent holds no merit. Examining the ethical issue of capital punishment must also look at a cost-benefit analysis that uses a monetary value rather than the classic utilitarianism principle of pleasure over pain (Boatright, 2012). According to Boatright (2012) an application of a cost-benefit analysis needs to place a value on human life. The issue with using a cost-benefit analysis of capital punishment is that not everyone may value human life the same. A person who commits a murder may not value human life the same as someone who does not kill. The family of a victim may find that the life of the killer has no value to them and in contrast the family of a murderer may value the life of the offender as more valuable to them. The cost of capital punishment also needs to be examined when using a cost-benefit analysis. The total cost per execution was $216 million more than life imprisonment (White paper on, 2012). In addition to the cost to execute an individual in a capital offense case there is the cost of trials, the process of appeals and attorney fees that need to be examined. In California the cost of a death penalty prosecution is up to twenty times more expensive than the cost of a life in prison without parole case (Williams, 2011). Also according to Williams (2012), â€Å"the least expensive death penalty case cost $1.1 million more than the most expensive life without parole case.† The cost of the death penalty is more expensive than a life in prison without parole sentence and twenty offenders could be given a life in prison sentence for the amount that it takes to execute one offender (Williams, 2011). I have come to the conclusion that the utilitarianism principle does not justify capital punishment. The pleasure over pain principle requires us to consider the impact on everyone and it does not require us to ignore our interest but we must place our interest no higher and no lower than anyone else (Boatright 2012). When I looked at the cost-benefit analysis I could not justify the use of capital punishment due to the massive costs that a capital punishment case incurs as opposed to the cost of a life imprisonment case. I will now look at the ethical issues of capital punishment using Kantian Ethics. According to Boatright (2012) the first principle of Kant is universalizability which is to, â€Å"act only on rules that you would be willing to have everyone follow.† The second principle of Kant is respect for persons which indicates one should respect other people and ourselves as human beings (Boatright, 2012). Kant was in favor of capital punishment for the crime of murder and based his view of the death penalty on the theory of retributivism (Potter, 2002). When an individual commits the crime of killing another individual they violate Kant’s first principle and do not follow the rules that everyone is following; namely the right to life which I will cover later in this paper. The killing of an individual also violates the second principle of respect for persons. According to Kania (1999), â€Å"each of us agree not to kill others in exchange for the security that others will not kill us or those dear to us.† Kant subscribes to the term â€Å"isu taloinis† which means the wrong doing is punished by a similar punishment and also believes that the death penalty is the only right way to punish a murderer because the punishment should be the end goal (White paper on, 2012). Kantian Ethics also involves autonomy which means self and law (Boatright, 2012). Autonomy relates to Kant’s principle of respect for persons and a society living autonomously involves creating their own rules and acting freely. This principle is seen in the laws that society has developed to prevent the killing of an innocent person. In the United States it is illegal to commit the act of murder which is different from the killing of a person. The killing of a person may occur during self-defense when an individual fears that their life is in danger. According to Potter (2002) Kant says in a general statement that all murderers should be executed and death is the punishment that must be carried out on the wrongdoer. Violating the principle of universalizability, respect for persons and autonomy all justify the use of capital punishment in Kant’s view. The third ethical theory I will look at is Rights and Justice. I will first examine the rights theory and how it relates to the ethical issue of capital punishment. Rights are part of many of the ethical issues in society and the term rights can be used in many different ways (Boatright, 2012). According to Bedau (2012), a human being has the right to life simply by being born and it is a violation of rights to murder another person. The violation of the right to life does not mean that we are authorized to violate another’s right to life. The judges and juries take another person’s life in their hands during a capital punishment case and by sentencing an offender to execution violates their right to life. Bedau (2012) states, â€Å"Even if a person has committed murder and has therewith intentionally violated another’s right to life, the criminal still has his or her own right to life.† The legal rights are in force to protect us from having our right of life taken away, and if our right is violated we do not have the rights to take someone else’s right to life. In contrast to the paragraph above John Locke argued that a person’s right to life can be forfeited if a person violates the right of life of another person. Locke goes onto say that the execution of a murderer does not violate their right to life (Bedau, 2012). Based on this argument Locke would be an advocate of the death penalty. Since the offender forfeited their right to life they no longer have their own right of life. Locke further states that a person forfeits their right to life when they commit a criminal act that deserves death (Bedau, 2012). The ethical issue of capital punishment and the justice theory coincide using the retributive justice theory. Justice involves the righting of wrongs and retributive justice involves the punishment of wrongdoers (Boatright, 2012). The justice retribution theory indicates that a criminal must and deserve to be punished and that the punishment must fit the crime (Bedau, 2012). The punishment of the crime may be different in each state or country as not all states and countries have the right to sentence an offender to the death penalty. The issue with the theory that the punishment must fit the crime is that each person may have a different viewpoint on how to punish the same crime. For the act of murder one could argue for the death penalty while another person may argue that death penalty is unethical based on their ethics. This leads to some confusion in the retribution theory as each person may have their own idea of proper punishment and retribution. According to Roberts-Cady (2010), â€Å"A retributivist would argue for the death penalty based on the claim that death is what a murderer deserves.† The retribution theory also values that a punishment should be exactly the same as the crime committed which is known as the eye for an eye principle (Roberts-Cady, 2010). Using the eye for an eye principle, a murderer would be subject to the same act they committed and subject to death themselves. It does not involve a judge or jury sentencing them to the death penalty and I interpret it as an automatic sentence for the murderer. The eye for an eye principle supports that murderers ought to be put to death (Bedau, 2012). An advocate of the death penalty using the retribution theory would find that capital punishment is just in cases involving murder. The issue with the above reasoning is that it is sometimes not possible to apply the eye for an eye principle in every situation. It would not be possible to punish an individual or group of individuals who commit mass murder that has more victims than offenders. An example of this would be the execution of the hijackers who flew planes into the World Trade Center killing thousands of individuals. The number of victims of this act far outweighs the number of hijackers that were aboard the planes. According to Bedau (2012) the execution of a mass murderer is morally inadequate as retribution cannot be served upon the offender given their inhumane and heinous acts. Another counter-argument for the eye for an eye principle is the equivalent to the crime is not always morally acceptable (Roberts-Cady, 2010). For example if a person were to be sexually assaulted, the retribution to the offender would entail being sexually assaulted in return. This would force the victim to decide if their offender should be subject to the same offense they endured and the victim may not be willing to make that decision and prefer to leave the punishment up to the justice system. The legal system in the United States takes this decision off of the victim and places it on a judge and jury. Although the victim will have to testify and recount the crime they would not deciding the fate of the offender. According to Robert-Cady (2010), â€Å"For certain heinous crimes, either the punishment would be roughly equivalent and immoral, or it would not be roughly equivalent.† The justice and rights theory seeks justice for those whose rights are violated but it is not applicable in all situations. If we are looking at capital punishment strictly from a rights perspective the right to life is violated when a person is murdered but what right do we have to take someone else’s right to life? Retribution and justice involve the righting of a wrong and uses the eye for an eye principle which is not always applicable to the crime committed. Using the rights and justice theory I came to the position that capital punishment is not ethical as I do not believe that I have the ethical grounds to take someone else’s right to life. The retribution theory is not clear enough for as I believe life in prison without parole would be just as effective as the death penalty. In this paper I have examined how utilitarian, Kantian ethics, and the rights and justice theory apply to the issue of capital punishment. I presented both an advocate and opponent view to the death penalty and whether capital punishment is ethically just according to each theory. Prior to researching this topic I considered myself as an advocate of capital punishment as I felt it was the most effective way to serve as a deterrent to murder and also a just punishment. I also consider myself a subscriber to the utilitarianism theory and choose to look at the big picture of an issue and how it affects everyone. I also look at situations using the cost-benefit analysis which allows me to make an informed decision. After researching the ethical issue of capital punishment and applying the information to my beliefs I realized that my stance on the death penalty conflicted with my utilitarianism view. In the utilitarianism section of the paper I came to the conclusion that capital punishment was not ethical. I also presented the cost-benefit analysis of capital punishment and the cost of an individual is much more expensive than sentencing a person to life in prison without parole. I have come to the conclusion that based on my utilitarianism view that capital punishment is not ethical. References (2012). White paper on ethical issues concerning capital punishment.

However, this does not mean it is a constitution that works efficiently. I ideate the appropriate security policy to work through for this project would be outline specific.2.3. credentials policy goalsAs applies to your selected scenario, explain how the confidentiality, right, and availability principles of information security pass on be addressed by the information security policy.2.3.1. ConfidentialityThe policy I plan to impose bequeath help to protect information by re covering how the company breeds smooth information such as employee and client records, tack secrets, and separatewise sensitive selective information.2.3.2. IntegritySince the company will be expend passwords and secure logins the system will not be glide pathible to the public. So the primary strain should be on the employees. trademark and chit set up be d unmatched using a entropy log to prolong records of employees activity while on the companys VPN.

Other external and environmental risks intromit fire, floods, power outages, hardware failure, software program package glitches and failure, storms, and other acts of nature.3.2. Disaster Recovery dodgingMost cases, having an alternative site (a sultry site, or cold site depending on the disaster) would be the correct way of dealing with intimately disasters. With Bloom design company I call having a heartily site facility would be the opera hat option. Warm sites are cheaper than hot sites just require more effort. On the other hand, they are more expensive than cold-site facilities but less labor intensive and more likely to be effective in a disaster. Also, having a backup and property site to work from, and recover from for the briny servers and web services is a earnest idea.3.3. Disaster Recovery Test PlanFor each mental testinging method listed, concisely describe each method and your precept for why it will or will not be included in your DRP test plan.3.3.1. Walk-throughsThis test plan would be a great way for the hear personnel to come together and spurt a plan of action in the heretoforet of an emergency. Due to Bloom propose group being unfold crossways a large country it might require some video conferencing and travel on the break dance of some employees.3.3.2. SimulationsI ideate this test plan is the approximately effective when compared to the others.

However, to background inconveniences to the customers it would have to be done during off hours.4. Physical bail PolicyDue in Week Five schema the Physical security system Policy. Merkow and Breithaupt (2006) state, an often overlooked connection mingled with physical systems (computer hardware) and formal systems (the software that runs on it) is that, in stage to protect logical systems, the hardware caterpillar tread them must be physically secure (p.165). Describe the policies for securing the facilities and the policies of securing the information systems. intimate the breaks undeniable for each category as relates to your selected scenario. These get overs may include the f ollowingPhysical controls (such as perimeter security controls, badges, linchpins and combination locks, cameras, barricades, fencing, security dogs, lighting, and separating the workplace into functional areas) Technical controls (such as smart cards, audit trails or main course logs, intrusion detection, alarm systems, and biometrics) Environmental or life-safety controls (such as power, fire detection and suppression, heating, ventilation, and credit line conditioning)4.1. gage of the building facilities4.1.1. Physical entry controlsAt the two office locations (Los Angeles, New York) for Bloom barter pattern Group I would use employee badges that double as an electronic key to access the building and other sensitive locations. This will work in conjunction withan access control system that limits entrance/exit to the offices through one main entrance. There will be an employee entrance as well also to be accessed by an electronic badge.4.1.2. Security offices, inhabit and f acilitiesFor the security offices I would implement biometric s tin canners due(p) to the sensitive equipment inside. Other live and facilities of a sensitive nature will utilize electronic badges with a pictorial matter and name of the employee.4.1.3. Isolated delivery and essence areasFor these areas I would implement electronic key card access with the use of a CCTV system recording to a DVR. With a CCTV camera located on the driver door in the loading area the person responsible for deliveries will know when a delivery is being do and can observe he outside environment before opening the door.4.2. Security of the information systems4.2.1. Workplace protectionFor this part of the security policy I would utilize pre-employment screening and mandatory vacation time. This prevents people from hiding illegal activities while bring to pass their duties. Also, I would setup allowd entity controls so operators and system administrators have special access to computing resources .4.2.2. Unused expressions and cablingFor unused ports I would use a piece of security equipment that can be plugged into the unused port and can only be removed by someone with a special key. This will help prevent unauthorized access into the net income. For unused cabling I would secure it in a secure storage manner which can only be accessed by authorized personnel. If the in a high place mentioned equipment isnt unattached then the port should be removed.4.2.3. profits/server equipment existence that this is some of the most critical equipment for business operations I would use biometric locks and scanners on any room thatcontains this equipment. Also these room will be environmentally controlled with descent conditioners and dehumidifiers to allow the equipment to operate at kick efficiency.4.2.4. Equipment maintenanceSince a lot of the equipment is spread across a large theatrical role I would utilize remote communion connections to troubleshoot issues. If the m aintenance need is more severe than I would have a teensy-weensy centrally located facility that specializes in assessing and repairing malfunctioning equipment.4.2.5. Security of laptops/roaming equipmentFor laptops and roaming equipment I would inclose all devices with a GPS tracker and encryption software to protect against unauthorized access. The equipment itself would be stored in a secure storage room with access being tightly controlled.5. access Control PolicyDue in Week Seven Outline the admission price Control Policy. Describe how access control methodologies work to secure information systems5.1. AuthenticationAuthentication credentials let the system to verify ones assignment credential. Authenticating yourself to a system tells it the information you have established to prove that you are who you guess you are. Most often, this is a simple password that you set up when you bear the privilege to access a system. You may receive an assigned password initially wit h the want that you must reset it to something more personalsomething that only you can remember. However, passwords are the easiest type of authentication to beat. Free and giganticly available programs are available on the earnings to break the security afforded by passwords on most of the honey oilly used systems.With two or three factors to demonstrate, an information proprietor can gain confidence that users who access their systems are indeed authorized to access their systems. This is accomplished by adding more controls and/or devices to the password authentication process. Biometric scanning uses remarkable human characteristics to identify whether the person try to gain access is authorized to levy or not. One rough-cut approach path to managing IDs and passwords is to create a password or PIN pretermit. These programs use secure methods to locally store IDs and passwords that are protected by a master password that unlocks the vault when its needed.5.2. Access control strategy5.2.1. Discretionary access controlThe discretional access control system will be used for Bloom target Group because this is the favored approach in the corporate environment and due to the wide area of operations this will allow several authorized users to have access to the system at any given time. The principle of least privilege is the preponderant strategy to assure confidentiality. The objective is to give people the least amount of access to a system that is needed to behave the job theyre doing. The need-to-know dictates the privilege (authority) to effect a transaction or access a resource (system, data, and so forth). An information proprietor is one who maintains overall responsibility for the information within an information system. For the Bloom instauration Group the information owner is going to be the corporate head of IT operations.5.2.2. Mandatory access controlIn a system that uses mandatory access control (MAC also called nondiscretionary access control), the system decides who gains access to information establish on the concepts of subjects, objects, and labels, as defined below. Since the Bloom Design Group is spread out over such a large area I do not think this is the best choice for this scenario. MAC is demote suited for military or governmental systems.5.2.3. Role-based access controlRole-based access control (RBAC) groups users with a common access need. You can assign a role for a group of users who perform the same job functions and require akin(predicate) access to resources. This would also be appropriate for this scenario because it will allow the information owner to easily assign access to certain groups such as designers, office personnel, customer service associates and so forth.5.3. Remote accessRemote Access Dial-In User function ( universal gas constant) is a client/server communications protocol and software that enables remote access users to extend with a centralserver to authenticate dia l-in users and authorize their access to the requested system or service. RADIUS allows a company to set up a policy that can be applied at a wizard administered internet point. Having a central service also means that its easier to track usage for rush and for keeping communicate statistics. A realistic private network (VPN) is another common means for remote users to access corporate networks. With a VPN, a user connects to the lucre via his or her ISP and initiates a connection to the protected network (often using a RADIUS server), creating a private tunnel amid the end points that prevents eavesdropping or data modification.6. cyberspace Security PolicyDue in Week Nine Outline the Network Security Policy. As each consort in the chain of network protocols can be attacked, describe the policies covering security services for network access and network security control devices.6.1. Data network overviewDue to the large geographic distances amidst Bloom Design Group offic es a unhinged is going to be utilized. WAN covers a larger geographic area than a LAN (technically, a network that covers an area larger than a single building). A WAN can bracing the entire nation or even the globe using satellites.6.2. Network security services6.2.1. AuthenticationAccess to documents can be restricted in one of two ways by petition for a username and password or by the hostname of the browser being used. For Bloom Design Group employees will need to enter a user ID and password to access restricted documents and sites.6.2.2. Access control contrasted authentication, which is security-based on the users identity, close access based on something other than identity is called access control. For Bloom Design group access control to physical locations will be done by controlled by electronic badges. More sensitive areas such as the server rooms will utilize biometric scanners.6.2.3.

A Leader Essay

Leaders can be seen in a variety of slip substance such as a president, a soldier, an athlete. But does a lieutenant exclusively lead his men into combat? Or does a president just locate the military discharge to war in wiz commilitary personneld? Leadership has a far different meaning than wholeness man giving orders. Being a attracter, wizard must understand that you can non deem every single thing upon your hands. Sometimes, counterbalance a leader can vex themselves tied up in a knot and not realizing what theyve d iodine or atomic number 18 doing. Therefore, in a lead position there must perpetu all toldy contain a group so that mode the leader leave not rule over everything and actually be seen as an shake somebody one who leaves themselves for others, and one who hunt clubes for the trump out outcome. Throughout my feel of consider, I have come crossways leaders and leadership. There a want have been more another(prenominal) leaders way before my ti me came rough. For fount, somebody like John. F. Kennedy. This man was seen as very animate to the American throng at the time. His speeches and allegiance drove not sole(prenominal) the population in the near path exclusively the country as well. Currently, our country is macrocosm run by Barak Obama which is actually sincerely good. He is a undischarged example of a leader. He has helped our country in the past few old age possess a lot out of this abundant dept we have and are actually motionless having. Hes withal has helped us with this welfare and also is giving a bit more benefits for illegal immigrants. In addition, the outcome of his work shall reinvigorate the multitude of America.Currently my most favor able experience of leadership is actually taking break by as we speak. I came across a book by the one and only great baseball frolicinger rally Hamilton. It is called Beyond Belief. Josh Hamilton is a great example as a leader and is a man who insp ires many ball players. Although he was drug time- well-tried and came out positive for cocaine and also suspended from the major leagues, he fought his way back to where he belonged in the majors. From a very young age he we always seen upon as the leader of the squad. At the age of only six years old he obtained the skills to play with the former(a) kids. Even then he was unwrap than the older kids. He was always leaders his teams in hits, average, and home runs. He carried this through high school. Although he was doing all these great things at once, being that type of leader is far different from being a leader for the team. Hewould always parcel out for his teammates as if they were brothers and always lightened up situations when they would be down a couple of runs or lost a blue. He would sacrifice himself when needed and was always one for lot out his team before powering his skills onto the field. He was not a selfish person at all and never bragged nearly anythin g he did. He did it for the love of the game that he cherished so much. Thats what really defines a true leader. When one does not become selfish and genuinely believes in the good of things whether it is an athlete or a president. Therefore, the outcome go away not only inspire teammates or the people of America, entirely whitethornbe even inspire them self to do more and be greater.A leader always does what is best for the outcome. Overall for the country, or for their teammate. Within a leader, there is always something unique about them. There are reasons, facts, and details on why they seem so inspiring to many people and that is why they are chosen to be the leader or even simply be seen as a leader. Although a leader may have the drive to do something right it is not always the right or best thing. Groups will play an crucial role for the leader and back them up with opinions of their own. Furthermore, a leader must play along or they will not be seen as a one who sacrifi ces or inspires anything.Overall, the true greatness of a leader will only portray when one is tested. It really can be at any moment. Josh Hamilton was tested for drugs and came out positive unfortunately. But the real test was whether he would be able to get back on his feet from this. Which in the end he did and fought his way all the way back to the top. Leaders do not vary simply off of how many people know them, how many votes, or how many home runs are hit. Theyre leadership shows when they are in the toughest moments that seem they cannot get across but actually can. As long as there is a contained group indoors leadership, more often than not everything will be fine. Things will not turn into a dictatorship and one man will not lead his team to the world series. Therefore, the group within will help their leader realize what they are doing and they will in fact sacrifice, inspire, and search for the best outcome.
