Being a fiction content creator, whenever someone asks me “According to you, which fictional character can be the crowned as the best Leader ?”, here my only reply always is “Optimus Prime or Captain America”.
But, let’s skip Optimus Prime for some other day because today in this post we will discuss about Captain America, where I have mentioned three practical leadership lessons that I’ve learnt from Captain America and if you follow them too then you can be a good leader as well.

Captain America
1) Inspiration
There is a similarity between all great leaders that have ever existed in this world. Let it be Mandela, Gandhi, Bill Gates or Elon Musk, everyone has the ability to inspire people rather than forcing them to do their work. This ability can be also seen in Captain America.
On one hand we have characters like Tony Stark, who often forces people to do what he wants or to listen to him, whereas on the other hand we have Captain America, who always inspires people and gives them a reason why they should do their work.
So the first leadership lesson that you should learn from Captain America is to inspire people rather than forcing them to do any sort of work. Only when you become capable of inspiring people, you can be a good leader.

2) Energy
One of the major ways of differentiating a good leader and a bad leader is their energy. Here, by energy I doesn’t mean some special, out of the world feature, but what I mean is that how you feel when you work with the leader: energetic or frustrated? How you feel while working with a leader determines if the leader is good or not.
A good leader is the one who spreads positive energy around him due to which his/her co-workers or followers also feel energetic while doing their work.
Now if we talk about Captain America, then he also spreads positive energy around him in bulk. You can figure this by a simple fact that in Avengers Endgame when Captain America said “Avengers Assemble”, everyone sitting in the audience in theatres (may be you too) felt a chill throughout their body. This is what the energy of a great leader feels like.
Now just imagine if in that scene, instead of captain America if Drax, Ant-man or Hawkeye would have said this then how would it have felt. Not so chilling, right?
3) Strength Analysis
The final leadership lesson that I’ve learnt from Captain America is ‘strength analysis’. A good leader always knows the about the strengths and weaknesses of his team mates and appoints work according to their capability. This leadership quality can be seen in Captain America as well.
Captain America has worked with a different team every time throughout his MCU journey. Sometimes it was an army of soldiers while sometimes it was a team full of Superheroes. But the point to note here is that despite the variation in teams, Captain America always managed to be victorious because of his ability of strength analysis.
So, if you also want to be a great leader like Captain America, then you must learn about the strengths and weaknesses of your team mates and assign them their respective tasks accordingly.
