Good morning class of 2019. I am Tori Cichelero, and I am running for Freshman Class President.

Trying new things can be scary, but it can be so much better when you have a leader to guide you. My guidance can make us freshman the best possible class by using our intelligence, hard-work, responsibility, and kindness. When I think of Ursuline Academy, I think of how great our class is. Each classmate in front of me right now means so much to me. Your grades,

Diane von Furstenberg is one of the world’s most successful fashion designers of our time. Born in Belgium in 1946, she founded the Diane von Furstenberg company in 1972, when she first came to America with a suitcase full of jersey dresses. Two years later, in 1974, she created the famous wrap dress for the working woman that we all know today. The dress was made out of drip-dry jersey cotton, as Diane’s intent was to create something feminine that was also easy to care for. By the mid-1970s, the wrap dress had revolutionized American women’s apparel. It was extremely versatile as it could be worn both as a comfortable business dress and also as an evening gown. In just a two-year span, by 1976, there were over one million wrap dresses sold. During this time, the wrap dress became a symbol of of power and independence among an entire generation of women. Today, the original wrap dress is at home in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, ( Diane von Furstenberg had quickly become a powerful fashion icon as she directly related to the driven minds of the career-oriented woman.

Great leaders don’t set out to be great leaders; they set out to make a difference. Lillian E. Fishburne was born in Patuxent River, Maryland on March 25, 1949. Fishburne was raised in Rockville, Maryland where she attended high school and went to college in Pennsylvania where she graduated in 1971.  In 1973 she became an

During my senior year of High School I was apart of a program about Women's Leadership called Sadie Nash where I learned all about women's empowerment and leadership. I still visit them to this day because they taught me so much and I consider them my family and I want other young women that are interested in social justice and leadership to experience such a great thing like sisterhood and there is no better way than to have a Women's Empowerment tour.

“If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice or representation.”

Angela Ahrendts is one of the most successful women in business of our generation. This is due largely in part to her exceptionally strong leadership skills. Ahrendts’ resume of accomplishments can stack up with the best in the world and includes honors and awards such as, The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire for her services to British business in 2013, The Prime Minister’s Business Advisory Group from 2010-present, Oracle World Retail Awards: Outstanding Leadership 2010, ranked #4 on Fortune’s 2013 top people in business, and ranked inside Forbes’ top 100 Most Powerful Women in business for the past nine consecutive years (Alexander, 2013). Every company that Angela has held a leadership role in has experienced great success. However, despite her many successes and achievements Ahrendts is describe as motivating and humble by her counterparts. This speaks volumes of not only her vast amount of business knowledge, but also to her ability to lead people in an effective, relationship-building manner. After much research on Ahrendts and her work at each company we conclude that she is predominantly a Theory Y leader and supports that with four key styles and traits. Among those are a balance of task-oriented leadership and relationship-oriented leadership, in addition to strong administrative skills and interpersonal skill. Ahrendts uses a combination of all of these styles and skills to effectively lead her subordinates and drive successful

Her leadership style reduces the pains, somewhat, in the challenge just mentioned. She’s been quoted as stating, “You’re only as good as your team”. Executives, who work for her, assist her in making these decisions. These

Previously, not many faculties believed that she could be an effective leader because she was not an outstanding researcher. She, however, was not demotivated by others’ judgments. She came to the office to work at 8:00 am and often left at 8:00 pm every day, sometimes, even during the weekend. She highly focused on her huge workload, but always smiled and encouraged other faculties and staff to work. When I asked her what motivated her to engage in her work like that, she shared with me: “When I was as young as you are now, I admired a senior faculty a lot because she was such as good scholar, a role model of whom I wanted to be in the future. Then I talked to her, and I still remember what she told me. She said that, the most important thing is to be passionate about what I am doing, and always work with 100% of my capacity, bring the best of mine to the work, then, the good thing will come to you inherently. I always remember her words and I talk that to myself every day. I have worked with that attitude from then on.”

She is more advanced than her peers, with many of whom I have interacted throughout my 38 years in the oil and gas and related industries. She is a self-starter, who identifies and pursues new ventures in an underserved market. She has proper knowledge of how to build networks and maintain relationships while converting her knowledge into successful ventures through her discipline, attitude and sheer persistence.
