Fake it, because you will never make it.
1. Order people around. Don't do any work. Because leaders lead, they don't work.
2. Don't research before starting anything. Don't think before starting anything. If somebody questions what you said/did/imposed upon people/decided, tell them about your vast experience in every field that ever existed in the history of mankind. Tell them about the deep insights that only you have.
3. Quote random websites and figures when somebody dares to question your great insights.
4. Call people for meeting again and again, even when there's nothing to discuss about and nothing to do. Divide the non-existent work among the team-members and chillax.
5. If somebody has a good idea, tell them it's bad (Steve Jobs did it too!). Then give a 30 minute speech, using words from 15th century English, about why it's wrong. Speak until the other person zones out and accepts whatever you want (probably because they can't bear you talk for an hour again).
6. Under no circumstances let anyone tell you that you are wrong, whether it's a teacher or a group-member. If they do, then ignore them as long as possible. If they insist, give bullshit reasons why what they are saying isn't "feasible". If they are smart enough to point out your mistakes, they would also be smart enough to realize that there is no point arguing with you.
7. Raise your voice frequently. It's an expression of power. That's what primitive humans did and you should do it too.
8. Appear elite. If you don't know how to do that, read this.
9. Act as though you are terribly busy and you are doing a great favor by appearing for the meetings and classes.
10. Be (over-)confident, even if you know nothing. Especially if you know nothing.
11. Wear protective helmets and armor.
