    Some people believe that in order to be effective, political leaders must yield to public opinion and abandon principles for the sake of compromise. Others believe that the most essential quality of an effective leader is the ability to remain consistently committed to particular principles and objectives. 

    Nowadays, the remarkable development and monumental changes in society have changed all aspects of people’s lives, especially in their attitude toward the relationship between political leaders and public opinions. Many persons think that following public view can help political leaders to achieve their goal, serving people, effectively. However, from where I stand, I totally disagree with them and believe only containing consistently committed to particular principles and objectives can ensure efficiency of political leaders’ work.

    First of all, public opinions come from people with different social statues always imped political leaders’ working efficiency. If leaders just follow public opinions without their own principles, it will difficult for them to deal with an issue, which people have totally different views based on their difference in social situation like rich and poor. For example, last years our local government decided to rebuild some old buildings. Many rich merchants suggested mayor converted these buildings into big shopping markets, which could bring many revenue incomes for government. In contrast, many poor asserted that these old buildings should be rebuilt as social apartments, which offer a living room for people without ability of buying their own house. From their perspective, only in this way can government achieved their most important goal, serving citizens. Due to lack of relative rebuilding police, mayor spent a long time to make a decision to support which opinion, which not only cause the delay of rebuilding project but also induce the people’s doubt about government’s efficiency. Therefore, following public opinion will hinder political leaders finishing their work effectively.

    In addition, public opinion always be emotional without consideration of long-time benefit, which finally cause the decrease the efficiency of political leaders who yield to it. With the implication of technology in media industry, nowadays people only can receive information they want to know and avoid realize the view different with them so that the suggestions they offered always be insular and emotional. For instance, many Scotland people suggest their government to independent from United Kingdom based on the information they received form local media. If Scotland government obey the public opinion, they will face many problems. Once they detach from England, they will lose the most important way to output their products, which at the end will cause they don’t have enough revenue income to support the government operation. On the contrary, Scotland government have their own principle so that they still keep Scotland be a part of England, which is match the long-time benefit for their people. Thus, following their own principles and objectives can help political leaders effectively have a consideration with long-time benefit.

    From what have been discussed, it is easily to draw the conclusion that obeying their own principles and objectives is the most important method for political leaders to keep a excellent working efficiency.
