Leadership Potential Skill
Question: Consider a speaker or presenter that you saw recently, and whose performance made you want to tell your colleagues or friends about it. Consider the following questions: How long was the session? What was it that caught and held your attention? Was there a slide or video component as part of the presentation? If so, what factor did it play in how well you enjoyed the session? Answer: Introduction: One of the primary anticipation from a speaker is the potential skill of leadership. According to Winston Churchill, it can be said, that- I see it is said that leaders should keep their ears to the ground. (Aarts et al. 2013). The best communication skills of a leader must include the respective approaches: 1) To know the need of the audience, normal speakers just deliver information, but a potential speaker inspire, enlighten, and deliver the information to a ground level. 2) To have a clear and consistency in the message which the leader has to deliver to his audience with potentiality and it should be compelling too. 3) To develop a powerful voice with uniqueness, which is not be confused with the volume or even beautiful resonance. 4) Use of effective communication skills with effective delivery (Pilet et al. 2014).Discussion:I have come across such a potential leader and speaker in Canada, Lester B Pearson, who was initially the deputy minister of external affairs, minister of external affairs, leader of the Liberal Part and former Prime Minister from 1963 to 1968 respectively. He was the first Canadian prime minister. I have gone though a speaking session of Mr. Lester B Pearson of about 7:33 minutes where he has deliberately delivered his agendas to an interview (Vid, 2012). I am surprised to view splendid communications of this political leader, who have overcome the stipulated facts and the stereotypic rules and priorities of the audiences. The referenced speech of Mr. Lester B Pearson was taken at a stage when he was brutally fighting with his last stages of cancer. The communication session was delivered in October of the year 1972, where he mentioned about his condition in which he could pass away at the end of December. The high spirit and the intellectuality within him were still not finished. In another communication ceremony, he has spoken of his overall view on his long career in the field of politics and the ups and downs he had gone through in his life. The government of the society was one his priority in the talk. He had the potential to represent Canada to abroad and can lead the country just after the United States of America (Dror 2014). The most interesting part of his speech was how he managed the situations and overcame the problems was a major thing to salute. He did not use any extra videos to elaborate his talk. His communication skills with the audiences include all the facts which I think to suppose to be the most relevant facts that a leader and a speaker should possess. The way of delivering his facts and information to his audiences comprises with peace and humbleness. The most important thing which impressed me about his speech is the way he explained about the government and improving the society of Canada. The country would undergo huge progress if he stayed as a leader for some more periods (Mackay et al. 2015). Conclusion: I have always been a fond of stage speakers, as I enjoy the presentations of the leaders in their different ways. The language, communication skills, speech delivery, intellectuality influence me to be interested in the communication of the leader with high speaking capacity. The speech remains in my mind, as a momentum which helps to make clear perspective in my life. References: Aarts, K., Blais, A. and Schmitt, H. eds., 2013. Political leaders and democratic elections.
