I chose Inside Out 2 because it is a movie about how emotions work together. The film shows how people handle new feelings, similar to how leaders deal with challenges. It also teaches important lessons about teamwork and understanding others.

# data[].attributes.body
The story is about Riley, a 13-year-old girl who is growing up and facing new emotions. Her original emotions which are Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust have been working together to help her. However, when new emotions like Anxiety, Envy, Embarrassment, and Ennui (boredom) arrive, things become complicated. Anxiety takes charge, believing it knows what is best for Riley, and this causes problems. Joy and the other emotions must find a way to work together with the new emotions to help Riley handle her teenage years.

Joy is the main leader in Inside Out 2. She has always been in charge of Riley’s emotions and tries to make sure Riley is happy. However, when the new emotions arrive, Joy struggles to lead because Anxiety takes over. Joy must learn that every emotion is important and that good leaders listen and work with others instead of trying to control everything.

The biggest problem in the movie is that Anxiety wants to protect Riley from bad situations, but it tries too hard. It removes Joy, Sadness, and the other emotions, thinking that only it knows what is best. However, this makes Riley feel overwhelmed and stressed. Joy must find a way to show Anxiety that all emotions are important and that they must work together.

Leadership Traits, Behaviors, and Theories

# data[].attributes.body
1. Emotional Understanding

Joy and the other emotions must understand each other’s feelings to make good decisions for Riley. Leaders also need to understand their team members

2. Adaptability

Joy has to change her way of leading. Instead of making all the decisions, she learns to work with the new emotions.

3. Teamwork

The emotions must cooperate to help Riley. This shows situational leadership, where leaders change their approach based on what is happening

1. Transformational Leadership Theory

Definition: Transformational leaders inspire and motivate their team to work towards a shared goal. They encourage change and growth.

Example in the Movie:

Joy realizes that she cannot lead the same way as before. Instead of forcing happiness, she learns to support the new emotions and work together with them. By the end of the movie, Joy helps Anxiety understand that every emotion has a purpose, inspiring a more balanced leadership approach.

2. Contingency Leadership Theory

Definition: Leaders adjust their leadership style based on the situation and the needs of their team.

Example in the Movie:

Joy initially tries to lead the same way she always has, but as new emotions appear, she must change her approach.

She shifts from a controlling leader to one who listens and collaborates with Anxiety and the other emotions.

1. Active Listening - Paying close attention to others, understanding their concerns, and responding appropriately.

Evidence: When Anxiety takes over and removes the core emotions, Joy initially resists. However, later in the film, she takes the time to listen to Anxiety’s s fears about Riley’s future. Instead of dismissing Anxiety, Joy realizes that it is trying to protect Riley, even though its approach is overwhelming.

2. Problem-Solving - Working with others to find solutions to challenges.

Evidence: After being pushed aside, Joy doesn’t give up. Instead, she strategies ways to return and restore balance in Riley’s emotions.

Rather than forcing her leadership, she collaborates with the other emotions, including Anxiety, to help Riley manage her feelings. This problem-solving ability is crucial because it shows how leaders can adapt and work through conflicts rather than trying to control everything.

3. Empathy - Understanding and sharing the feelings of others.

Evidence: At the start, Joy struggles to accept the new emotions, especially Anxiety. However, by the end, she understands that Anxiety is not trying to harm Riley but is genuinely concerned for her future. In one of the most emotional moments, Joy reassures Anxiety that it is okay to feel worried, but those feelings don’t have to control everything. This shift in perspective helps Anxiety step back and work alongside the other emotions instead of taking over.

4. Adaptability in Communication - Adjusting communication style to different situations and people.

Evidence: Joy originally leads by spreading positivity and keeping Riley happy. However, when this approach no longer works, she adapts her communication style.

Instead of telling Anxiety what to do, she asks questions, listens, and helps Anxiety realize that all emotions are needed for Riley’s well-being.

# data[].attributes.body
At first, Joy is not effective because she tries to keep Riley happy all the time and does not want the new emotions to take control. Anxiety also struggles because it tries to protect Riley too much. However, by the end, they learn to work together, making their leadership stronger.

# data[].attributes.body
Joy’s Strengths: Positive, good at solving problems, works well in a team.

Joy’s Weaknesses: Tries to control everything, does not accept change easily.

Anxiety’s Strengths: Plans ahead, wants to protect Riley, thinks about the future.

Anxiety’s Weaknesses: Worries too much, makes Riley feel overwhelmed, does not trust others.

1. Quote from Joy: “We can’t control everything Riley feels, but we can help her understand her emotions.” – This shows that leadership is about guiding, not controlling.

2. Scene Where Anxiety Takes Over: Anxiety pushes Joy and the others out, believing it knows best. This shows what happens when one person tries to lead alone without teamwork.

3. Scene Where Joy and Anxiety Work Together: At the end, Joy and Anxiety both take turns helping Riley, showing that leadership should be shared.

A good leader listens to others and does not try to do everything alone.

Change can be scary, but learning to work with new people or ideas makes leadership stronger.

Every person (or emotion) has an important role, and teamwork leads to success.
