Vision

In order to be a leader, a great leader at that, one must have a vision.  Without a vision how will you guide and lead your students towards high expectations and academic achievement?  What is your definition of a vision?  When I think about a vision I want to get an exemplar example or the perfect model... just like I would in the classroom, provide an exemplar model.  So, automatically what comes to my mind when I ponder the meaning of leadership and a vision I am immediately drawn to Jesus.  Jesus had a vision, in this sense not a supernatural appearance, but rather an ultimate goal and foundation for His purpose in life.  His vision was given by God.  How did He lead people?  Did He ever deter from His vision?  Did Jesus ever comprise his character, integrity, and supernatural ability to please someone else?  Did Jesus hold true to His vision and bring many from out of darkness and into the light?  I've had only two postings... one from LaToya (thanks!) and one from myself :(.  I need more intelligent minds to come together and share their thoughts, ideas, opinions in order to create a successful discussion and conversation.
