@tjko3000 I definitely think Dolly Parton is not only a celebrity but also a leader. She blends talent with influence. She has used her fame to give back in philanthropic ways.

@yannivines2 I also wrote about Oprah. She is a powerful leader along with being a celebrity. Many people listen to what she has to say.

@chloenharkins I believe "The Rock" is someone everyone knows of. He is definitely a leader along with a celebrity. He is a well known actor because of his leadership style and a lot of people look up to him. He created a successful career for himself after his wrestling career.

#LIDC92 Oprah Winfrey is known primarily as a celebrity but is also a leader. She has had a successful career as a television host/producer, actress, author, and media personality. She is widely known for "The Oprah Winfrey Show", which is her talk show. https://t.co/XWeHYaTtCa

@sammrossmann Helping build a community is definitely something crucial for leaders to do. Having this sense of connection and community with your followers helps to be more on a personal level and feel more comfortable and trustworthy.

@juliaciacciare That is interesting. Leaders seek validation and manage vulnerability to create a sense of trust, which helps with influencing their audience. By showing vulnerability, leaders can connect on a more personal level.

@Degenstein11509 I totally agree with this. Being a leader is being empowering to others, lifting others up and helping them to do better and achieve their goals. Like your article states, "Leadership has nothing to do with seniority or one’s position in the hierarchy of a company"

#LIDC92 Relates to the Kahai reading on how leadership changes. An interesting point this article makes is how people are more likely to trust a company whose leadership team engages with social media, and they would prefer to work for leaders who are active on social media.

@Harsha545231969 Yusra Mardini is a good example of a leader who uses her platform and voice for a good cause. She is courageous and brave and that shows in her social media presence.

@juliaciacciare Jane Fonda uses her platform in an amazing way. She definitely shows leadership with her responses and tweets to things she is passionate about. She has and shows a lot of commitment and passion for issues like climate change.

@sofiacondron Alex Morgan using her platform to raise awareness on certain topics like these allegations is very impactful. She is able to educate other people along with show her thoughts on specific topics. She is showing leadership and speaking up.
