How are Napoleon and Snowballs Leadership Styles Different?

Napoleon and Snowballs leadership styles are very different and they had completely different ways they wanted to run animal farm. Snowball is a more happy, and he is more creative and more fluent than Napoleon. Snowball is also active and works hard on a lot of different things at the same time for the farm. His nonstop work ethic, cleverness way he is, and public speaking skills make him a very good persosaive leader. Snowball forms a lot of complicated designs and plans to build.

Why is Snowball a Better Leader than Napoleon

The most excentioal differences in leadership between Snowball and Napoleon are their ideas, the way they interact with the other animals, and their ways of gaining loyalty and control. Both agree on their ideogly of "animalism" and their seven commandments which is the way farm should be run, but they don't agree on a lot besides the. "Snowball was a more vivacious pig than Napoleon, quicker in speech and more inventive, but was not considered to have the same depth of character" (7).

This example shows that Snowball's reasons have less to do with him and more to do with making the farm better, and it shows he is so dedicated to. He even risked his life in the battle of cowshed. Snowball not only planned the attack against the men but he also put himself willing that he could get hurt but he didn't care because he still charged directly fighting the men. His only selfish thing that he wants is the need for as much knowledge he can get from the world. His ideas center on improving animal farm, he follows the commandments but he let's the small not important things slide.

We learn early in the book that he is highly smart, for he is the best writer of the pigs. Orwell also shows, simply that Snowball is willing to work hard in a way Napoleon is not. Snowball is a responsible leader. He genuinely believes in Old Major's vision of an animal world. He is able to develop plans, and organize animals on the farm. Unfortunately he lacks the "skills" to manipulate and scare other animals to keep his power from those.

Napoleon is the complete opposite of Snowball, Napoleon is a very corrupt leader. "Throughout the spring and summer they worked a sixty-hour week, and in August Napoleon announced that there would be work on Sunday afternoons as well. This work was strictly voluntary, but any animal who absented himself from it would have his rations reduced by half.

This shows how Napoleon doesn't care about the animal's health and doesn't care that they are exhausted from working everyday and having sixty hour weeks and not even having one day off because Napoleon took their one day off which was sunday.

Napoleon exiling Snowball shows that he's a bad leader and a tyrant, he doesn't want anyone rival for power then he takes advantage of the animal's uprising against their masters to soon after he becomes a opperssive leader or in this case he becomes a dictator. Showing how he is a dictor he creates a scapegoat in this case is Snowball. So he has someone he can blame for everything that goes wrong and somebody to focus all their hatred towards. He creates a propaganda system so that the only information the animal's get is the information that Napoleon wants them to hear. He takes young puppies and raises them to be his army to put fear into the animal's so if they ever try to disagree with him they know what the dogs would do to the animal's.

So as you can see Napoleon and Snowballs leadership styles are very different and completely opposite. Snowball is a leader who actually wants good things for animal farm unlike Napoleon he is just a tyrant and a dictator who wants to put fear into the animal's and he doesn't care if they are suffering he just only cares about himself and doesn't care for anything good for animal farm that's how they are very different from each another.
