my introduction(maybe)

These days there are many organization around our life and leadership is common to everyone around the world. The leadership has some relationship between the country’s society type. In japan, most of the people will think “vertical leadership” is normal because japan is vertical structure society. Vertical structure society is a type of society which focus on “what are you belonging?” like school, company, and so on. This society type has strong hierarchical relationship and this appears in the company’s boss and subordinate. The opposite type is horizontal structure society, India is a good example, that focus on “what is your capacity?” such as job, caste and so on. Especially, in Japan vertical leadership is used in most of the places. Such as company, laboratory and even in children's club activity.

    Vertical leadership might be old for these days when we look at Fortune’s “World most Admired Company 2014”.() Only around 10 company raked in top 100 but most of them got lower rank than 2013. This vertical leadership and vertical structure society is very special that only few countries such as japan, korea and so on only uses them mainly. Not just the leadership type made the japanese company’s rank lower but as we can see, there are no new company that is getting popular these days born in Japan. The japan’s leadership might be stuck and need some new type of leadership. Distributed leadership is a kind of new leadership which is introduced recently. If the vertical leadership is  compared as a group which has boss and subordinate, distributed leadership is like a team which means everyone has almost the same power and decide what to do by everyone. So, this distributed leadership is better than vertical leadership.

    This paper will examine how distributed leadership is useful these days. It begin with the demerit and the limit of vertical leadership. Then look at the merit of the distributed leadership and how it can solve the problems of vertical leadership. Finally, the common point of two leadership and explain how we can change the leadership style with explaining the example of success in other company.

i thought i need more research and read them because there are many points that needs sources. i hope i had more times,,,

chapter 3 &4

     Chapter 3 and 4 talks about 'Optimism' and "stamina"
     Optimism is a key point for the organization which has goals. There are many successes and also faults when we are doing work and i have heard that bad impression has more impact than good impression. For example, if we give someone 1 bad impression, we have to give them 7 good impression to make the relationship better. So, that the bad things seem to be realize very bigger than the fact. When facing this situation, leader might be very nervous because the team's fault is leaders fault, but on the other hand the leader must look at the next step and show to the followers immediately. there are no times for the leader to stop. leaders should not look back because if leader did not look forward, who will lead the followers? to look forward, optimism is necessary because being negative does not make a success. if the leader sentient optimism and try to spread to the followers, the team can stand up even they are in a dark negative space!!!
     Stamina! very important and i think there are two kinds of stamina. one is stamina of body and the other is stamina for the heart. However, the annoying one is stamina for heart.  We could recover the body stamina by eating, sleeping and so on. But, the heart stamina is difficult to recover because there are less chances to rest than the body. to management everyone's stamina, leader should look at everyone's mental and also care about his own mental. i think this is why leader is difficult. i have more opinions for "stamina" but i will stop here for now!!

19 will coming

     19 will enter ICU in April and it means there are only two month left that I could be the second grade of university. The half of my university will end and I have to choose my major, start to search about companies. I am realizing that I am getting to ready for the employee.
     On the other hand, I am looking forward to look 19. One of my reason is there might be some people who will enter the flying disc club. In June there is a tournament for freshman and sophomore so we need many people entering our club. In ICU, the number of boy who play sports are extremely low! Every year there are battle between many other clubs. Also, a big reason for looking forward to look 19 is the enter of "kako sama". Usually, I do not have a chance to look imperial family. I am very exciting to have a chance like that.
     There are good points and bad points to become the third grade but I am looking forward for that.

about my research

     My computer might be crashed so I have to research about my topic mainly on analog. I am erase arching about distributed leadership and vertical structure society and leadership. For my research, I have to find many sources so that it makes everyone easy to understand. My main source will be the book "The human relationship among vertical structure society" and "distributed leadership".
     If someone have some nice information I can use, please inform me! In our class there are many interesting research topic and I am looking forward to sharing our idea with everyone! We do not have much time till the due day and we also have a group presentation. It gets busier and busier so I have to expand my outline as soon as possible but I do not have much passion to do it. I hope i could finish and survive this class.

Reading "leading at the edge"

     I forgot to post about our textbook because i made a mistake that i must post at least one post from our class, not the text.
     So, i will start to write about our textbook from now.
   
     Reading the textbook, i agreed and with the chapter two, "leader should be visible."
     the leadership i am trying is different from Shackleton's one but i found many points to know the common point for the people who lead the group. he says to use the personal experience and let people see you leading. i think these two points are very important point to be a good leader because the leader is the person who stand in the front and lead the other group members and if the leader could not lead the member visibly, the dignity of the leader will disappear. this means the breakdown of the organization.
      use the own experience might make a good relationship between the followers. By using the leader's own experience, followers will know about more and realize the leader as the same human with them. Not always but sometimes there might be some effects like this.

     this text is very useful for me i will keep reading and learn about leadership!!!

my research topic

     Finally I decided what to research on my paper. My topic is a new leadership  especially the leader  is  not like a boss. I mean treating everyone as a leader or  the leader pushing up the member to the  goal, not leading from the top.  I will research about distributed leadership, weak point of vertical structure society's leadership and the merit of horizontal structure  based leadership which I defined it originally.
     I chose to research this topic because I became a leader of my club last summer. In japan most of the club has a similar leadership system with vertical structure societly's leadership which is seen in Japanese company.  One boss and the others. This is the type of Japan. Our teacher said it is a group. From last summer I tried to be a good boss but I did not have a skill to become it.  So now in my team we are trying to find a new leadership. Everyone a leader or leader who push up not pull everyone might be a good word to explain it. I wanted to research more deep and feedback to my club so that I could make a strong, good team.

My winter vacation

     my winter vacation has started from the end of December.
   
     i did not have a plan for traveling to somewhere or going shopping and so on. i did not want to go outside because it was cold this winter. i went to my friends house in Chiba to play card game during all the night. To tell the truth, me and my friend enjoyed playing card games and became tired so we slept after midnight. This was my big event of my 2014. At New years eve, i watched kouhaku song festival because Perfume was performing. They were using the latest technology during they were dancing and i thought it was amazing!!!!
    However, when it became 2015, my body was not a good condition. Before i go to bed, i could not sleep because of my stomach ache and head ache. I could not each Osechi because of this. I am very sad that i could not each Osechi this year. when my condition got better, it was the day before the school starts so, maybe i could not enjoyed this year's winter vacaton...

evernote and reading proposal?

     This week we started our class with introduction of evernote and reading proposal. To research and collect the information, i came up with a Zotero and Evernote. Our teacher introduced us an Evernote to organize our project. It was very useful for me because i forgot how to use them since i learned how to use it when i was freshman. This time, i learned a new technique to share my note with other people. I shared my RW final project note with my teacher but  i am wondering which part of the note could the people who is shared can look.
      Also, we started to think about our final project. Reading proposal is a one paragraph work which includes thesis, sources and so on. I am still thinking what topic should i research about. during the winter vacation i got many ideas but i could not find a good source and a good image. i am a bit nervous about these works because i do not have a self-confidence to do them. i would like to continue my research and use my brain to come up with a good idea!
