As a result, these young women are eager to share their time and talents with the campus community. For example, Leadership Academy serves to build self-assurance and leadership skills and follows a curriculum based on The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner. Our research tells us that 75 percent of participants go on to hold leadership positions in their chapters or on their campuses. Ultimately, we all want the same thing: a strong campus comprised of individuals who aspire to gain new perspectives, develop leadership skills and strive for personal growth.
Through the National Student Leadership Conference, I will be marching out of my comfort zone and learning qualities that will aid me in becoming a better leader. In my school there are numerous leadership opportunities, from being class president, to being a house captain, to planning a school wide event.
My path to law school has began in my sophomore year of college, now I am ready for the challenges ahead with an eagerness to learn. I have discovered over the years that I embody the unique combination of activism, diligence, and courage beneficial for a legal career. I originally had an interest in pursuing a law degree as a student in the School of International and Public Affairs at Florida International University. At the time, I chose to major in criminal justice with the intention of becoming a defense attorney. However as I neared graduation I was not certain about a career as a defense attorney.
A leader is able to gain an audience’s attention because of their personality, morality, and how they hold themself. It is important for a leader to be organized, compassionate, able to compromise but also be firm on what they believe, and be a person who people look up to and aspire to be. I was part of an organization called National Charity League and this organization helped grow women’s confidence, public speaking skills, time management, and organizational skills. Each month, each class holds meetings to plan and discuss projects that follow the class’s focuses. This past year Class of 2023 philanthropic focus is children, cultural focus is international food, and for leadership we are focusing on self care and reflecting on the NCL experience.
I would like to be apart of ASB because I’m interested in helping Medea be the best school it can be. I always like to learn new things and I will appreciate new experiences learning from seventh and eighth graders. I am responsible and I am excited for my leadership skills to be tested. Also, I will gain more responsibility and learn more leadership skills throughout my time in ASB. As part of ASB, I will be able to work with other students who have similar interests and want to be fellow leaders at Medea.
Recognizing the important role that law serves in an integrated modern society and acknowledging the influence of legal professionals on individuals, institutions, and government; I aspire to become a lawyer to help facilitate a progressive path to universal peace and enjoyment for all and to ensure the protection of the individual’s universal rights and access to public goods, particularly in America and my native Caribbean. While I acknowledge the potential financial benefits inherent in the practice of law, the exigency to pursue this field is a personal challenge and genuinely altruistic. Despite souring optimism, reality suggests it is improbable for any one individual to right all of society’s wrongs. I am not concerned, however, with the results of my efforts in future endeavors. For me, the courage, candor, and excellence of my efforts are more central to my self-fulfillment than the legacy deriving from it.
I look forward to helping students to develop a drive for personal academic excellence and a rich perspective on the world around them as they explore links between the individual, society, and the natural world. The potential of secondary geography is to stimulate an interest in the wider world through learning knowledge, both in and beyond the classroom, and acquiring geographical and transferable skills to last a lifetime. I am currently studying a broad-based geography degree ranging from economic to cultural geography, but also including staples of classroom geography including development, coastal processes and volcanology. My subject knowledge is strong and wide-ranging and aligned to both current GCSE and A-Level specifications and
Since enrolling in the College of Pharmacy, I have worked to improve my leadership skills through my involvement in community service and being an active member and Historian of Lambda Kappa Sigma (LKS). Joining Phi Lambda Sigma (PLS) will allow me to learn more about myself as a leader, including where I can improve and how I can benefit those around me, and assist me in becoming a more effective leader. My personal goal as a member of PLS is to feel more comfortable interacting with other professionals, positively interact with all populations I may encounter, and step out of my comfort zone when given new opportunities for advancement and reflection. I will accomplish this through opportunities to participate in activities that increase
My freshman year, I made the wise decision to participate in the Leadership Development Program (LDT.) Participating has put me in many notable roles in campus leadership and helped me gain entrance to much sought after leadership and program slots including: Drury Enactus, Alternative Spring Break, Summit Park Residential Leadership Community, Drury Student Senator, President’s Roundtable, and Freshman Orientation Leader. Today, if I could sum up my participation in leadership and extracurricular activities, it would be: meaningful involvement. I do not take
Some of these student leaders are able to work with large budgets, recruit large numbers of members, and fundraise for many different charitable non-profit organizations and non-governmental organizations.

Through this opportunity, I can improve my communication and decision-making skills. Engaging in this cohort also allows me to connect with district stakeholders who share similar practices and principles surrounding student growth and achievement. I strongly believe that participating in this
I know that the University of Texas at Austin goes beyond academic recognition. It values integrity, positive behavior, and morals of dependable students that I want to help the campus continue. The first time I played a leadership role was when I became an officer for my church youth group. As the committee chair, I take charge in conducting monthly Bible studies. I have realized throughout the process of holding a Bible study that it is a strenuous task.

The most important thing in life is justice. It is vital that justice is being served in society because each individual must be treated in a fair manner. Justice enables good to occur and restorative justice empowers those who have done wrong maintain peace throughout every community. Serving justice promotes a safe environment, and if we were deprived of justice, immoral acts would not be seen as wrong.
