Stimulating: Encouraging, Inspiring, and Energizing others to follow the goals defined by the leader

Scenario:

You and your friends enter a competition together involving creating an original invention and creating a presentation about it. Everyone in the group is very smart and part of the International Baccalaureate program. The one downfall, however, is that everyone except for you is extremely lackadaisical. You have two months to synthesize your invention and everyone is brainstorming. When everyone comes up with an idea, you set upon working on creating the invention and presentation. But, soon everyone's downfall begins to be displayed and you are the only one working on the project. If everything is finished and submitted on time, it is a guaranteed first place. Nonetheless, no one is working. To cajole people into working you even create detailed instructions for everyone in the group instructing them of what they need to do for the competition. Even that effort proves futile. WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?

"Answer":

A true leader would have stood up and gently encouraged and inspired the group to work by listing rewards or energizing their spirits. The leader would have made sure to have clearly defined the goal and made everyone follow by being an example.
