There are a few things that I will take away from my year in leadership. One of them is the balance between hard work and having fun. While I was point person, I had to plan a lot which was a heavy work load. It made a little crazy at times, but it was worth it at the end watching people enjoy the event. Leadership has also taught me how to be more outgoing and how to stand up myself. At the start of the year I was a more shy and quiet person. I would just stand there to scared to speak and allow everyone to talk, but me. Now, I am able to freely express my ideas and not let everyone walk all over me. This will be helpful when I’m in university and I have to work with others because it is important to listen to other people’s ideas, but it is also helpful when I provide ideas. Anyways I’ve enjoyed being in leadership this year and I am grateful for everything I have learned from it. I hope everyone who takes this course next year enjoys it just as much as I did.
