Life as the leader...

As Ralph looks down from the top of the bastion of the island in Chapter One,  he exclaims, "This belongs to us!" Much like an explorer discovering a new land, Ralph has found himself in charge of a new world--an island of boys. Select a situation that you feel Ralph has handled well as a leader and a situation that he has not done well.  Explain them and why you feel each is either a job well done or a job that needs improvement. What advice would you give Ralph to keep in mind as he is chief? What is the main thing he must do? Why? (The deadline to post a response is midnight, Sunday, October 20, 2013.)
