    Whats more important to me about leaders or leadership is that they help you grow up with the right information, or guidence.
    Leaders should always guide others to do what they love, support them, and give them the right information. The quote " Dont give up, and don't give in" tells me that leaders should support one another, and not give up.

    I think the most important thing to me about leaders are that people are going to look up to you and you have to set an example for the next generation because whatever we do they are going to do next so we really have to be careful about what we do and what really stood out to me was when Cap thought he couldn't go to school but he remembered what Rain had told him and it was "To never give up".

    I think the most important thing on being a leader is to lead everyone to make the right choices and make sure everyone shares their opionions on what you do, since it affects them and yourself. This is important because when your a leader your supposed to make everyone's life easier and make decisions others usually can't make. They depend on your decisions to help them along.
    Noami depends on Zach's decisions and embrace's Zach decisions he make's for them. Noami doesn't realize until later that it affects her and everyone around them.
    Quote- " Cap spent two hours in the costodian's closest and I felt awful about it but my hands were tied, I was with Zach." Noami knew it was wrong but ignored it since she was with Zach. Zach doesn't because a true leader towards the end of te book when everyone thinks Cap is dead.

  9. The most important thing to me about leaders and leaderships are that sometimes your leaders can make you or break you but at the end you come out better.
    Like Cap because everyone hated him but it made him stronger and it brought everyone to like him. Like rain said she thinks that alot of people at the school would be happy to see him there again.

    What I think is important about leaders is that they are not bossy. Also that they don't list power go to their head. They have to make reasonable decisions, and listen to others opinions. And be confident, energetic, and influential.

    At Capricorn's memorial service, Naomi says,"He showed me a new way to be. How to be sensitive and generous--and not just so people will say thank you, but because it's right."
    This shows that Capricorn had influenced Naomi and probably a lot of others too. (page 192)

    The most important thing to me about leadership is the responsibility and sportsmanship of that person towards others. The way they lead or guide a group is also important. Like how Rain leads Cap against violence "violence is not the answer to anything."

    What is most important to me about leaders or leadership is that leaders guide you and give you information. Leaders need leadership to be a good leaders. "Must finish what you started" means that if a leader started it must finish it like a good leader.

    The most important thing about Leaders or Leadership is, Leaders help Motivate you or Steer you to the right crowd or path. Everyone needs that one person to keep your mind staying focus and to boost your confidence levels. Capricorn Anderson was a good Leader he used the quote " All You Need Is Love" which is true.

    To me a leader is someone we can confide in and trust our secrets with. An idol or role model is what i think of a good leader. If a leader can take reasponsibility for their actions that makes them an even better leader. There are some good leaders and some bad leaders who take advantage of people who follow them. A good leader is someone who dislikes " Unfinished buisness".
    Hugh Winkleman was going to tell Cap to go to the office and say you don't want to be president but then he thought to himself, " better him than me." That wasn't showing leadrship qualities. A true leader would of walked up to Zach in a polite way and said " leave my friend alone." That is what a leader does make life some what easier for people and speak for others who are afraid to defend themselves.

    The most important thing about leadership is to deflect attention away from yourself and encourage others to say their opinions.

    Leaders will never stop leading because they are so self-motivated to motivate others.

    The most important thing about leadership is that they have the right guidance that you need and they always make you finish what you started.Also that they always help you when you need them most.I also think that being your own leader and not follow what people want you to do but what you want to to do.

    The most important thing about leadership is if they know what to do and how to do it. If your the leader of something and you don't know what you are doing why are you the leader. The leader should always know what there doing.

    The most important thing to me about leaders and leadership is that if people are being mean to you that might make matters worse. Or people can help you out and that will be a really good thing. But what happened to Cap was that he had people being really mean to him but in the end it backfired on those people because it ended up where everybody loved Cap but they wanted nothing to do with the people that were being mean to Cap. Even though Cap went through all of these "traps and pitfalls" he came out a better person.

    What is most important to me about being a leader is having a piece of mind and having a say in everything that the people opinionate like on page 89 when Cap, remembers what Rain said and she said "Don't give up, and don't give in". And that is how I think a real leader is made with the knowledge of a true smart persons teaching.

    The most memorable thing that Cap Anderson did in the book was that he had made an impact in his school. I connected to that because I was student council president two years in a row and I had also made an impact in my school as well .

    The most important thing to me about leaders and leadership is that leaders should be role models. They should help other people grow in the right direction and help them reach their goals. Leaders should push other people into trying their best in everything. But finally I think a leader should always be with the people he is leading like Cap. Cap came back to the school because he didn't want to leave them. When he got to the school these were his word's "Everything's okay! I'm not dead!"

    The most important thing about leaders to me are the steps to take where they want to be. How much effort they put in their jobs to get where they should. They try to keep everyone on their feet and and keep them confident

  37. The most important things about being a leader is that you have to be fair and understanding. An example of a good leader is someone who treats everyone the same way and listens to the people's opinions. But, a bad leader would probably just do what they want for themselves and not care what other people want

  38. The most important thing about leaders or leadership is that when you are following a leader you know which path you're taking and you know the outcome of your choice in taking that path. Example: Most of the kids choices in this book by following Zach as a leader brought a bad outcome but later got on the right path by following Cap as a new leader

    The most important thing about leaders or leadership to me is no matter how impossible something sounds, no matter how hard the process may be, they never give up. "You always said we should finish what we start, see things through to the end." (Cap quoting Rain, p.181)

    The most important thing about leadership is setting a good example for others. Also to be a good leader I think if someone needs help with something you should help them. Being a good leader you should always finish what you started and strive to do your best. Just like Cap said to Rain when he wanted to go back to c average for the Halloween dance always finish what you start.

    4. The most important thing about leadership is standing up for what u believe in. A leader never gives up and always keeps going. Like on page 37 where Cap is told he has to learn every students name. The quote don't give up and don't give tells me that leaders not omly support one another but they also who the younger generations look up to.

    What leadership means to me is being a good person, being a good role model, and having the strive to achieve. Leadership should be done with the desire to motivate and inspire others for the better.I believe that if the intention is to be a good leader it should be with positive example because others are looking up to and following the actions of the leader. Thats what leadership means to me.

    The most important thing about leaders is that they do there own thing and they don't follow anyone else but themselves and they don't care about what someone else has to think about them for example Cap he didn't care what anybody else thought of him he did his own thing and he wasn't like the other 8th grade presidents even though he didn't really know what a 8th grade president did he still did him.

    The most important thing to me about leaders is to put an example for other students around them . The most important thing about leadership is to show someone or some thing the right things to do in life.Like Capricorn in Schooled he showed leadership by ignoring Zach Powers when he would put stuffit in his locker ,and also when Mr.Rodrigo fainted he stud up took the wheel And said "Were's the hospital."
