What term describes a person who is able to influence others to act?

• A. Adaptation
• B. Leader
• C. Progress note
• D. 1:1 activity

Answer: (B)

The main concept is leadership—the ability to influence others to act toward a shared goal. A leader guides, motivates, and coordinates people, communicates a clear direction, and sets an example so that staff, volunteers, and residents want to participate and push initiatives forward. In an activities program, strong leadership helps the team rally around activities, collaborate effectively, and adapt plans when needed. Adaptation is about adjusting to changes, not the act of influencing others. A progress note is simply documentation of what happened or progress made. A 1:1 activity refers to a single-person session, not the broader ability to influence a group or drive collective action.
