The Leader - Being A Leader Means Sharing; This Girl Teaches Her Mother How // Singapore Viddsee.com

’THE LEADER’ is a story of coincidental friendships and purposeful mutual respect between two people who have come from very different places. The teacher of two Kindergarten students - a local girl named Nicolette and a foreign student named Jonathan - is electing a class monitor to help with the planning of a class party - a day where parents, teachers and students will gather to make 'tang yuan’ (Chinese: 汤圆), also known as sweet rice balls. This is a traditional Chinese dish that symbolises family togetherness, meant to be taken on happy occasions such as weddings, the last day of Chinese New Year and the Winter Solstice. Little did they know, their parents are colleagues in the same workplace. Nicolette’s mum, Suzanne and Jonathan’s father, Leon are both struggling to find common ground and understanding to work on a pitch for their boss. Touched by how Jonathan and Nicolette managed to rise above differences and work together to plan a joyous gathering that celebrates happy reunions, Suzanne and Leon come to realise that they have much to learn from their own children.

"leadership" mean to me is to be is be able to lead yourself first and be able to plan ahead so that you can start to lead others. Troop 1454.

[@thanos6635]

AnimeMuseScore Music Everyone is a leader

[@astudentpilotlife]

Yes, they were born a leader, but can they do it?

[@thanos6635]

AnimeMuseScore Music It doesn't matter if they can or not but if they are willing to do...

[@astudentpilotlife]

Ellie Kan I agree with you, thank you. And everyone have there own definition of leadership and I respect that.

[@astudentpilotlife]

[@mechellerosario842]

[@ChickenTendere]

Hey funny story when i was in kindergarten every day after school I would wait in the courtyard for my mom like other kids who were being picked up by their family members or friend's parents and every time at least one kid would come up to me and ask me if I was Chinese but it all stopped when everyone saw my last name (Gomez) and they thougut i was Selena Gomez's little sister and they noticed I was Colombian and yep

[@alliyahmedenilla6968]

5:26 I can hear Jonalette instead of Jonathan...... Nicolette........and also me me me me me me

[@claudiaarmah8573]

That's normal for children to be egocentric. However, it's the parents responsibility to set a good example and teach them to be humble and considerate.

[@m.fadhlanshiddiq9715]

The biggest problem that I have as leader now is not to manage people but to manage my own heart. sometimes, I feel so sick bcz of this. I am sure that this my problem is from me who does not have enough knowledge about many things.

[@ArtIsDrawing]

I hate how the teacher blames Johnathan too, he did nothing. It was only nicolett.

[@elishaso]

[@cookiemonsta6813]

I heard Jonathan more than Nicolette so why Nicolette is the class monitor?🤔🤔🤔

[@Catxslam]

probably because there were more girls than boys in the class.
