Describe a friend who is a good leader.

You should say:

Who is this person?
How did you first meet?
And explain why you think he/she is a good leader?

Sample Answer

There are several people who I believe are born with incredible leadership qualities. A person who is confident, bold, and possesses quick decision-taking qualities can be termed a leader. One of my friends named Gaurav is a good leader and has all these qualities. He is my childhood buddy and has always excelled in every activity. In fact, he was the head boy of our school. He was quite straightforward and clear in representing his views and opinions. During our cultural event at school, we got into some mess and were extremely scared to put it forward to the school authority. Gaurav took the matter into his own hands, boldly shared the issue, and got it resolved. He has the ability to supervise the group efficiently without being unfair. Presently, he is serving at an MNC as a project leader, where he is leading a team of 150 employees. He started there as an operational executive, but seeing his hard work and efficient leadership skills, he got promoted. I feel proud to be his friend and wish to learn a lot from him.

Sample Answer

Without a doubt, managing a business is a demanding endeavour . The upcoming ups and downs require patience and preparation. A very small percentage of people pursue careers in business. Zoravar , one of my friends, is a successful businessman. He was the one who would always think outside the box in our group. He, however, had always desired to launch his own company, even if the rest of us were training for government employment in order to have a stable future. He was full of business ideas, none of which we would consider plausible. But he never wavered in his self-belief or his resolve to manage a profitable company. Last year I met him after a long time at a friend’s wedding, he acted just like he always did. Zoravar also made appearances on well-known podcasts. He currently owns multiple companies. My favourite project of his is his well-known clothing line. Both the pricing and the quality are really excellent.
