Who Made You King? A Look at Leadership Across Species
Insomnicat Explores What Makes a Great Leader – Through History and Across Species
Ghandi, Julius Caesar, George Washington, Winston Churchill, Alexander the Great, Napoleon, JFK, Simon Bolivar, Henry VIII, we’re not short on examples of leaders who displayed qualities worth noting – even the nefarious leaders possessed characteristics that made them worth following – or fearing, at least. But leaders through history are not just human leaders – animals are great leaders too. As we mull over the question: what makes a great leader? It’s important to acknowledge the animal kingdom and the various levels and styles of leadership within it.
From elephants to lions to chimpanzees and wolves, animals have a lot to teach us humans about being respected and respectful leaders.
In all social spheres, there are leaders and there are followers.
Some species have a desire for power, some rely heavily on the women to lead, others are very male dominated. IN many species the alpha position brings with it a lot of challenges, critics, and responsibilities (sounds like humans too). So join us as we explore the characteristics of leaders—In many species—and discover just who made them king – or queen.
