Leadership and Government

  This term we have been working on our leadership and government topic that we started in the first week of term 2. My perspective of leadership is that you have to be a role model for those who look up to you because no doubt they will follow your footsteps and try to do their best just like you. What does democracy mean to me? Democracy to me means that everyone has a say in what goes and the right to vote no matter how old you are.  Government to me means someone who runs the country, leads people and has a big part in the industry. These topics relate to each other because they  all have things in common like trying to make this country a better place to live in. These topics relate to NZ leaders because the leader of New Zealand is part of the government and every leader in NZ is rather a politician or in the government. The issue I complained about was that the road signs aren't big enough meaning people who are driving at a high speed won't be able to catch every leader on the sign and the potholes are way to big meaning that if a car hit the pothole, there's a chance that they might lose control which is dangerous. My overall view on this topic was that it was very informal but not my style and I don’t really like getting into political work.
