It is a great honour for me. I've never been a leader before. But a problem appeared during the very first task – giving out the roles. Lisa and Mary both wanted to play the princess. Some of the team thought Mary was better. The others went with Lisa. Everyone looked at me and expected me to decide. But I just froze. Actually, I thought Mary was better, too. But what if I was wrong? What if I hurt Lisa's feelings? My silence made Lisa angry. “I'm out!” she shouted and stormed off. Then the whole team was silent. My first day as a leader was awful! What should I do? Could you please advise me?

Sometimes good teamwork is hard to achieve! So the leader should take responsibility in times of disagreement. Here is my advice: First, you should discuss the matter with Lisa. Why does she want to play Snow White? What are her strengths and weaknesses? You should work with her to find out. Then, why not have Lisa and Mary both try two roles? For example, Snow White and the queen. All the team members can vote for the most suitable person for each role. Remember: You're the director, but you don't have to deal with all the problems yourself. You have a whole team, so ask them, too! I hope my advice is helpful.
