My Leadership Philosophy

862 Words4 Pages

Leadership is something that every collective society will need regardless of its make-up. I try to lead in the things I am able to. Being a leader is more than just bossing people around and getting what you want all of the time, it is understanding the needs of all the people involved and creating progress for the good of all. Leadership is not always easy, especially when no one in a group views a situation remotely the same. I attended a school where there was very little diversity in terms of race but, very typical of other types of diversity. Half of my classes had no diversity whatsoever that I was aware of. I have always found it important to include everyone in activities. If people are left out or cast aside based on their advantages …show more content…

I hope to make a lasting impact in my community by showing people that there are simple things they can do to enhance their community programs. I also want to show my peers that there is more to life than what we think is important. I often tutor people or help them with their homework without any recognition. I only tutor people if I feel that I am able to help them improve their understanding of the subject at hand. I do it whenever I am available whether it be during lunch, before school, after school or on the weekends. When we help others, it should just be a natural instinct with only the student’s best interest in mind. I do not need to be rewarded or honored for being a good human being. I have always tried to be a helpful person, it is my nature, my calling, and what I enjoy doing, whether it be school, church or just being out in the community. People should realize that there will always be guidance and help for those who need it and that those who are in need should not be too proud or embarrassed to ask for it because I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way. My experience with helping people has allowed me to be a part of something greater than myself. I have realized that some people just do not have the same opportunities as others. This realization has helped me to further my goal of helping others instead of only helping

I volunteered at the PI Math Assistant for my service learning assignment. This assignment helped me to know how much I enjoyed being around people and helping others as much as I can and most importantly this experience helped me a lot to see how helping others is also helping yourself at the same time.

I like to be involved in schools because I value education, especially since I am a first-generation student, which is why I am interested in this position because I have a passion in helping students become successful and motivate them to go far in what they desire. Throughout my education experience, I’ve noticed that students who struggled more in academics tended not to care and teachers would be frustrated. I noticed that these students needed more of a support system and motivation. I decided to help these students by volunteering at schools. For example, I volunteer at Image elementary and a program called La Plaza.

"I have seen our students reach out of themselves and truly give selflessly to others. The students have come to understand that it is not our place to judge someone and their circumstances in life, but rather to celebrate and respect the dignity of that person's

Although I do not have a position in leadership yet, I believe that leadership does not only apply to large-scale events, but group work and responsibility in oneself's own actions as well. To me, leadership does not mean that someone can boss the entire group around, but to create a positive relationship with peers. Being able to build trust among your associates is the fundamental base of a relationship with the people that will be part of your life, which is also an essential part of leadership. I decided to join STEM, which allowed me to understand my potential with leadership. During group projects, we would make decisions together as a group, instead of separate individuals arguing over what to do.

All my life I had always loved to help others and set an example. I believe that community service through the program National Honor Society, has greatly impacted my life by showing me how I can put my underlying motivation and cast a full fire of passion. I have always loved to teach and motivate others to try their hardest in school to achieve something above of their expectations. From my love of teaching, tutoring and trying to help understand in "student talk" has always been a strong point to show how rewording something can greatly impact a student's understanding which is all worthwhile. I always make sure to keep my grades up and dedicate time to studying and persevering which has influenced others around me to follow my path to achievement.

The fact that I would be able to see my work help someone achieve their goals would not only help that person, but also help me feel like I'm contributing to something in my community. It’s incredibly rewarding when you’re able to see your work play a role in someone’s recovery and let them get back to doing what they love. On the other hand, I believe I can give a lot to this program, too. Firstly, I am a very detail-oriented person.

This type of interaction will improve social development for students, as students are provided with the opportunity to expand their circle of friends.

I was never the perfect student, nor was I always perfectly behaved. I understand that there are more people like this, that is why I strive to help others in achieving their own personal goals. Spending time at school tutoring sessions, and the school band program has allowed me to help people in the way that I strive to. I am able to help people become better at a school subject that they may be struggling with, or even teach someone how to play certain type of percussion instrument that they may not have known how to play. I want to be able to look back on those experiences and know that I may have inspired someone to help others in the same way that I did for them.
