प्रश्न

You are the School Pupil Leader. Mention some qualities that can be drawn from the field of sports to improve your leadership skills.

थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर

A school pupil leader should be a role model. He should coach and lead his team. He should give appropriate counsel to the weak members. He should appreciate genuine efforts even if it doesn’t fetch results. He should encourage enjoyment of the work rather than success. Victory and failure should be treated with composure and equanimity mind.

He must nurture positive thoughts among young ones. He should inform the young ones, “No battle is lost until it is fought”. If one has courage, persistence, and team spirit, one can definitely succeed. One has to fix realistic goals for the team and offer support for the team to achieve it.
