As a leader you have to be humble and giving for people to like and follow you. In “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” before the green knight came he was sharing a meal with all of his army. King Arthur was not up in his castle he was down on the ground with the fellow people. He treats them equal and that is how to be a good leader. In the Story Beowulf Hrothgar shared his money and riches and did not keep them to himself.
The Dauphin alludes to Henry 's notoriety for being excessively partial to moving and delighting, saying that there is nothing in France that can be won by such means. He sends Henry a gift, and demands to hear no a greater amount of his dynastic cases. Exeter opens the chest, to uncover the gift as tennis balls (an allusion to Henry 's childish ways in which he preferred as a
A leader is a person who leads or commands a group, organization, or country. In The Tragedy Of Macbeth Shakespeare imagines the qualities of a good leader to be honorable, trustworthy, reliable, beloved by the people, and strong-willed. Ducan and Malcolmb portray these qualities however Macbeth is lacking in the qualities to be a good leader and as a result, he is unsuccessful. Duncan and Malcolm in Macbeth by William Shakespeare show that the best leaders are selfless, honorable, trustworthy, reliable, beloved by the people, and strong-willed. Macbeth on the other hand not at all.
“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way,” as said by John C. Maxwell. This reminds people about what it takes to be a great leader and has raised many controversies as to what a great leader is. Qualities like decisiveness, confidence, focus, and consistency are necessary to make a leader. Virtue, which is a behavior showing high moral standards , is not one of the necessary qualities. By analyzing literature and history, a person can still be a good and effective leader without virtue because they are consistent, credible, and have a vision of their goals.
How can a king give a speech so great that his troops follow him into battle? In Shakespeare's King Henry V. By using ethos, pathos, and logos.

The entire speech employs ethos because Henry is the king and an expert at warfare.
A leader is a person with the power or the ability to lead others, this relates to being a hero because a hero cannot do all work on their own. A hero must have help from others who are willing to follow them and help them with their final goal. This is shown is John C. Maxwell’s quote “A leader is someone who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way”. What he means is that someone who is considered a leader can know the right path, and be able to help someone else on that same path, and continue on that path with that person.

My major thesis was saying how Beowulf is a true leader from what he has done and the courage he has had when it came down to protect the people cares about and his kingdom. In conclusion a true Leader or hero whatever you prefer calling it is someone who has a lot of dignity and nobility to do what is right. One last thing you should be if you want to be a leader is being Self Assured at all
Initially, Shakespeare uses ethos throughout the text because he was considered a king. The entire speech employs ethos because Henry is the king and an expert at warfare. Also, Henry mentions making their mothers proud. Shakespeare allows Henry V to speak “[d]dishonor not your mothers; now attest”. Encouraging his soldiers to not disappoint their mothers.
Good morning ma’am I am sending this e-mail to argue for Henry V to be used as a set work for students in Grade 10. Some students say that Henry V is a boring book and it is useless to use it as a set-work for students especially for Grade 10s however I believe that this book is a good set-work for students in grade 10. I believe that it is very useful because it shows that being a leader is not about being selfish and it also shows us the different leading styles that people as people have and how that can impact the community that the particular person is leading. Since we are a leadership academy and one of the statements of inquiries for this term talks about how ‘students understand that great leaders use their power to inspire their
LEADERSHIP IN HENRY V Throughout history, we have seen many great leaders marshal and inspire their men. From Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr, to Alexander the Great and Winston Churchill. Although undoubtedly different in their styles and methodologies, it is without doubt that all of these people were very strong and effective leaders. In William Shakespeare’s Henry V, we are also presented with different leaders – King Henry, King Charles IV of France, and the French Prince, the Dauphin.
Primarily, the main reason for class divisions were to clearly define the line between the lowest and highest on the “totum pole”. Keeping things running smoothly between the variety of people that lived during that time was ideal for the royalty to have their land in control. For example, in Henry V royalty was relevant and the class system there was pretty obvious since it was present in the medival times. Having class divisions in Henry V helped define the line of respect towards the King and establish a common ground for the soldiers and the commoners. One of the different aspects of class in Henry V was the unique interactions with his soldiers.
Henry’s temper is hard for him to control because he is sometimes faced with situations when he cannot distinguish between King Henry and friend Henry. This duality, paired with the duality that is being a king is an obvious cause for confusion and rage. Henry had such a strong bond with his old friends, that when his new friends were so quick to betray him he was deeply hurt. Another time Henry exhibits incomplete control of his temper is during the battle of Agincourt. Throughout the battle, Henry’s soldiers have taken many French soldiers prisoner and seem to have the advantage.
This scene is vital for understanding the play’s exploration of the politics of the nobility and the interpersonal relationships of men.
