Character makes a leader-thursday speaker

I thought the speaker on Thursday Mr. Atkinson was a really good speaker and had a great message.  I agree that character makes a leader.  To be a good leader you need to consider the feelings of those around you. When he told the soup story I felt that the father in law did the right thing which was the only thing one should do in that kind if situation.  I felt that the point he made about the most popular people don't always have the most respect is true because sometimes the most popular people don't make the best decisions.  I think that popular people often times get to wrapped up in their image and how many people admire them for the wrong reasons.  I feel like at our school this isn't a big problem because we have leaders who want to set an example. I think that our school have many very respectable young leaders. With good young leaders we are able to acomplish many great things for our school and community.  I thought he was a really good speaker I enjoyed what he had to tell us.
