Discussion
1.
A good role model is made by understanding oneself. According to Wiegman, 2018,1 for
becoming a good model for all and ensuring acting as a one for employee s I supervise , knowing
what I am is a must with intent of identifying my values and the aspects of my personality I
might be passing on to others besides figuring out the negative aspects and working on getting
them resolved; knowing who are looking up to me and why for frequently acting on my good
qualities, reaching out to others besides building stronger relations with people I am surrounded
with; making positive choices (self and others) for teaching positive values and ways of thinking
to others; determine my bad habits and resolving them by questioning myself if I have hurt
others around me, are the consequences of my actions were good or bad, what were the long-
term impacts etc.; admitting the mistakes and be apologetic for making bad choices and
correcting it; exhibiting confidence in whatever actions I take and always leading responsibly for
setting example to others following the suit.
