Looking back at my time in Leadership 11 (technically 10), I’m proud of how much I’ve grown. At the start, I wasn’t always confident in taking charge or speaking up, but over time, I learned how to step up, work with different people, and stay organized even when things got stressful. I now see leadership not just as being in front, but also as helping others, listening, and making sure things get done right, and efficiently.
One of my biggest takeaways is the importance of communication and reliability. Whether it was helping with events, managing tasks, or supporting my team, I realized that people depend on you and being dependable matters.
Even so, that now, in some of my classes, I am more up to being able to speak up and lead others when working in a group, even if I do not know the others well.
This program has taught me a lot more than I expected. I hope to take leadership again next year, so I can experience being the point person and truly lead an event, as I have yet to try that this year. I’m glad I was part of this, and I’ll carry these skills with me wherever I go next. Thanks to all!
P.S: (this is gonna look real nice on my resume)
