HOW TO WORK ON THIS ASSIGNMENT (EXAMPLE ESSAY / DRAFT)
One leader who stands out in my mind is Malala Yousafzai. I personally believe that she is a leader in society because she has shown tremendous courage, resilience, and determination in her pursuit of advocating for girls’ education.
Born in Pakistan, Malala was just 11 years old when she began speaking out against the Taliban’s ban on girls’ education. Despite receiving death threats, she continued her activism, which eventually led to her being shot by a Taliban gunman in 2012. However, she recovered and continued her work, becoming the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate in 2014.
Malala demonstrates several characteristics associated with leadership, such as vision, inspiration, and integrity. Her vision is clear: to ensure that every girl in the world has access to quality education. She inspires others to join her cause by sharing her story and speaking out on behalf of millions of girls who are denied their right to education. She also shows integrity by consistently standing up for her beliefs, even in the face of danger, and using her platform to raise awareness about important issues.
In conclusion, Malala Yousafzai is an exceptional leader who is making a positive impact in the world. Her unwavering commitment to girls’ education and her demonstration of leadership characteristics make her a true inspiration to us all.
