Leadership:
In the novel “Animal Farm” by George Orwell leadership is a key idea. Three significant moments when this was shown are how benjamin shows his true leadership among the farm by being a hard worker and teaching the other animals how to read and write, how Boxer shows his true leadership and determination when the humans were forced off of the farm. Clover also shows her true leadership when she finds Boxer injured after the Battle of the Windmill.
Benjamin shows his true leadership in the book “Animal Farm” by his knowledge and wisdom. Benjamin is a very old donkey but still shows his hard work and determination among the farm. Unlike the other animals benjamin knows how to read and write and he is wanting to hold classes to teach the other animals how to read and write. This is showing that benjamin is a leader and wants to help the other animals. Benjamin is planning to be a leader and also plan out all of the animals future so they can be treated the best that they can be.
Boxer has always been true to himself and a true leader. While boxer may not be able to read and write he can still show his leadership by stepping up to his plate and showing his motivation and determination when the humans were forced off of the farm. Boxer cares for the other animals and makes up for his stupidity by being determined and strong when helping out for jobs on the farm. When the battle of the cowshed occured boxer was a great strong companion to help the humans to not take over the animal farm. I think this shows that boxer can really show his true leadership at times of need and this is an important
Clover can be a great friend but can also show her motivation and determination. After the battle of the windmill boxer was knocked out and clover was the first one there to help him out. This shows clover is a caring friend but can also step up to be a leader at times of need. Like Boxer clover is unable to read and write showing she is unable to fully understand fully what the seven commandments mean. When Napoleon changes these commandments Clover had a suspicion that they were changed but didn’t know if she was right until Muriel the sheep reads them to her. When Snowball was exiled Clover didn’t want to accept the fact that this was going to be the way to overthrow the men. Clover is a great help to the farm except from her lack of common sense but she is a strong devoted horse who sticks to the commandment ‘All animals are equal.’ I think this is a good quote for Clover to stand by because no animal should be anymore equal than any others.
In conclusion, leadership is a huge idea in this as of the points i’ve stated above. Benjamin, Boxer and Clover all have great leadership qualities and know what it takes to be a leader. The points that I have stated are not all of the reasons why leadership is important. I think everybody should have some leadership qualities in them.
