I enjoyed reading Northouse as he talks about how good leaders create a vision to help people and make the world better because it is a topic that is relatable to my current position at church. A vision is like a picture of what the future could look like, and it helps guide people to reach good goals. But some leaders in history, like Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin, created visions that were meant to hurt people. This essay will explain how making a vision is different for bad leaders, if their visions have the same parts, and how they share and carry out their visions.

The way bad leaders create their vision is different because their goals are harmful. In Northouse's book, good leaders create visions that help people and make life better. Their visions are about fairness, kindness, and helping everyone. But bad leaders, like Hitler, made visions full of hate and fear. Hitler's vision was to have a "pure" Aryan race, which led to killing millions of innocent people in the Holocaust. Instead of helping, his vision was about hurting.

The parts of a vision can look the same, but they are very different inside. Northouse says a good vision is clear, exciting, and gives people hope. Bad leaders can also make their visions look clear and exciting to their followers. For example, Stalin wanted a strong communist country. To his followers, this seemed like a great goal. But his real plan was evil because it meant killing and hurting people who didn't agree with him. So even if a vision looks inspiring, the big difference is if it helps people or hurts them.

The way leaders share their vision is different. Good leaders, according to Northouse, share their vision with words and actions that bring people together. They use positive words to give people hope. Bad leaders, like Hitler, used fear, lies, and propaganda to make people believe in their bad ideas. Hitler gave powerful speeches that made people believe his hateful ideas. He blamed Jewish people for Germany's problems and made his followers think hurting them was okay. This is very different from how good leaders share their visions.

Ultimately, the way leaders make their vision happen is different. Good leaders work with others, listen to different ideas, and make changes that help everyone. Bad leaders use violence and threats to force their vision. Stalin used secret police and fear to control people. If anyone disagreed, they were killed or sent to work camps. This is the opposite of what Northouse says good leadership is, which is about respect and working together.

In conclusion, both good and bad leaders can make clear and exciting visions, but the big difference is why they do it. Good leaders, like Northouse describes, want to make the world better. Bad leaders use their visions to hurt others. The way they share and make their visions happen also shows the difference. Good leaders inspire hope and work with people, while bad leaders use fear and force. History teaches us why it is important to follow leaders who create visions to help people and make the world better.
