Statement Of Purpose To C/2d Lt

I should be promoted to C/2d Lt for the following reasons. First and foremost, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to motivate not only myself but the cadets in my flight also. I have shown this by mentoring and coaching my flight to promote and training them for the escape room challenge. Additionally, I have been consistently conscious of my own performance whether that be during drill, teaching, or commanding. During drill I have taught my flight sergeant the six-step teaching method, and I am constantly coaching them on how to improve on it by demonstrating myself using the method to the flight. Whilst teaching my flight I have worked on being more clear and concise and making sure I give my full attention to questions and making

Meaning that it is one of my primary responsibilities to coach and mentor new sergeants and older ones. With being a C/CMSgt I am tasked with preparing Cadet Senior Airman (C/SrA) for their first promotion board. With mentoring these cadets I am training them to be great sergeants that can one day take my spot and teach new cadets how to do a promotion board. As a non commissioned officer (NCO) flight commander I have the responsibilities of an officer with the rank of a sergeant. And I have put in numerous hours of work creating documents and drafting emails all to benefit my cadets. Once again the new call downs sheet is an example of my managing skills that I believe will benefit Mustang Cadet Squadron when I get promoted to C/2d

One of these important emails that I have sent was regarding the new Alpha Flight call downs form. This email was sent to over twenty people including my cadets, and my commanding officers. This email was sent so that everyone of importance to this form knew of its existence and had access. I have also taught my cadets how to take proper notes on CAP subjects, ranging from a lecture about aerospace to annotating their leadership books. I believe this is very monumental to helping these cadets as they will take these note taking skills to school and eventually into their workplaces. Furthermore, as a primary teacher for the cadets in my flight I am constantly talking. Which is both a blessing and a curse. It is a blessing because I can assist these cadets in what they need and help teach them topics monumental in their CAP journey. But as stated it is also a curse. For the simple fact that I talk super fast. And sometimes I give too much information at once. So for the past six months I have been practicing talking slower when giving important information. And I am starting to see this work, as cadets in my flight are beginning to write down more notes, and they are not getting as many hand cramps. So, I believe I have demonstrated a strong skill in written and verbal communication
