"One day your life will flash before your eyes.

Make sure it's worth watching."

Video

Lean on Me a true story of an authoritative, and controversial, school principal, Joe Clark.

Joe Clark is recruited by superintendent, Frank Napier for the seemingly impossible task of turning around the violent and out of control Eastside High School.

From the very first day he is determined to motivate the staff and students to improve their results on the State Literacy Exam. And he succeeds in his objective.

Clark uses a bullhorn, a baseball bat and a confrontational style with his staff and combines it with a tough, nurturing relationship with his students to try to bring this about.

Inspirational Story

• One day, all the animals of a forest gathered to choose their king. The monkey danced such gay abandon there that everyone felt delighted. So, his name was proposed for kingship. Everyone voted in his favor and he became the king.

But the fox couldn't tolerate the monkey rising to a high position. He felt envy of him and decided to humiliate him. One day, the fox was roaming around searching for food and saw a trap laid by some hunter. It had a piece of meat in it as bait.

The fox was intelligent enough to stay away from the trap. But he was sure that monkey wouldn't. So, he approached the king and brought him to the trap. The fox then said, Here is a dainty piece of meat, sir! As a true subject of yours, I didn't touch it. So, enjoy it Your Honour!

The monkey extended his hand for the meat and got trapped. The fox then laughed and said, Kingship needs a lot of wisdom, sir!

Just any one can not rule the Jungle

To be a leader/King you need qualities of a Leader

To be an effective leader, you need positional as well as Personal Power

Moral

Thank you!!!
