            In the session with Prof. Syed Omar, we were asked to discuss and select the best leaders that can communicate well. Our group (Super Synergy) choose to talk about the leadership style of Eric Schimdt-the CEO of GOOGLE. Throughout the presentation, we can actually compare the leadership style for each of selected leaders and we can make them as our role models.

            In the evening session, we were given the case study about the club and the scenario in the club that makes them failed to be a good leader and conduct an event. We have to analyzed what is wrong in the organization and it is proven that corrupted leaders can lead to failure in business or organization.

A leader also should always present yourself as best as possible as how u look are much more important than what u say! this is the power of first impression. BE PREPARED!
