Question

Prompt: Should leaders be more responsible than the average citizen? Justify your reasoning.

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There are many characteristics required to be a good leader, responsibility being one of this. This is because, unlike the average citizen, leaders make decisions that have an influence on a large group of people. They need to think of how their actions affect others and how those actions might be perceived. They also need to have skills such as good time management and communication to be a good leader.

They should also lead by example, since their actions and attitudes have an effect on the population which they are governing. Leaders are looked upon as an inspiration and as being able to lead through difficult times. If they are irresponsible, they might not achieve the necessary objectives and might have a negative effect on the rest of the population.
