back from OBS

i m back from OBS!!
obs was fun, thou i missed some parts of the camp due to some ksaa work.
so effectively, i only took part in 3 activities.
the most enjoyable activity was the sea expendition where we kayak for 15km.
however, it's also this obs that led me to some thoughts.
it's supposed to be a ledaership training camp.
my first qn was what's the criteria to be selected for this camp
it's said that this camp is for human development n for those who have shown the possibility to take up higher responsibility.
however, i wasn't v impressed by most of the participants simply for the fact that a leader needs to have initiative n dares to take risk n to lead others in time of risk.
while i noe it's not fair for me to comment so much on their ability as i din join them thru out the camp. but i was abit disgusted by their lack of initiative when the instructors were trying to get pple to volunteer to b leader for the sea expendition.
i understood that it's a daunting task to be a leader for things u never tried before.
but isit life that way. to be a true leader in a big corporation n to get the company to move forward,
a leader dare to take the risk to lead the followers in events/circumstances that no one faced b4
in the end, it takes the youngest of them all (which is me) to volunteer to be the leader together with another lady.
i must say even the instructors must have felt abit sian abt the fact that no one wants to volunteer.
i mean it's a leadership camp. it's meant for u to practise leading n not to b afraid of failure.
but sadly i dun c that happening.
let's hope there will b improvement in the future for dem
