FFA Student Leadership Report

In addition, the FFA means leadership and that is one thing I am for. Leadership leads to organization and that's key. Leadership is one thing that want to learn more about because I'm always trying to find ways to be a better leader. Whenever there's a time for leadership I will try and have an input in it. Without leadership the world wouldn't be the way it is.

My educational leadership philosophy is founded on respect. Respect must be given and received mutually. From teacher to students, to custodial staff, each person has their own story, fights, successes, and talents. Working together as a team to promote self and community advantages will enhance not only the school, but in turn will affect the world.

Leadership, to me, is not necessarily always equated with a formal title, but rather it is characterized by the attitude, behavior, mindset, and actions of a person. Being a leader means being positive and supportive of others, providing them the opportunity to be heard and know that their opinion matters, motivating them to accomplish shared goals through teamwork. Over the past years,

As a secretary for the Turlock FFA chapter, I consider myself a leader. I have a taken a leadership position that has expanded my knowledge of how a leader should be and how to take responsibility. I have influenced other members from my school to participate in events and attend meetings. I have shown them what I learned and how I applied it to my everyday life. I also learned that I can improve and better myself from trying an experience that would take me out of my comfort zone. It was a little challenging adapting and keeping up with the events and

I’ve been part of the Fillmore Central FFA Chapter for 6 years. Since then I have participated in many CDEs including Dairy Judging and Dairy Foods. I have also held many officer positions, such as Reporter, Treasurer, Vice President, and President. FFA has taught me leadership and dedication. In order to be successful in life you must give your all toward everything you do. Without dedication today's agriculture and other industries wouldn’t be possible. Leadership propels organizations forward and creates new possibilities

Leadership is the action of leading a group of people or an organization. Leadership is necessary in all facets of life. Not everyone has leadership abilities, and those who do, are gifted with an amazing capability: to lead. In the past year I have demonstrated leadership on and off the playing field, whether that be on the track, the baseball field, or the hockey rink.

Leadership is defined as the power or ability to lead other people. Historically, I have strived to be a person that my peers would call a leader. I want to be a part of the Florida Leadership Academy so that I can learn new leadership skills from other proven leaders, as well as spread some of the skills that I have honed over the years. Throughout my life, I have pursued numerous leadership roles such as assistant captain of my high school’s varsity ice hockey team, Lead Volunteer at Young At Art, and currently, the secretary of the University of Florida Student Investment club. In addition, as a sophomore in high school, I took the initiative to apply and enroll at the College Academy at Broward College. This decision was a unique opportunity

My leadership experience will lead me to a successful career. I have experience with being a leader not only in 4-H, but FFA as well. I may not have a leadership position in FFA, but I show leadership in other ways. I show leadership by leading class discussions, and volunteering to help with our chapters’ group of cattle. I was the first to start doing cow chores, and I taught the following person what they needed to do regarding chores. This goes to show, that even though I am not an officer for our FFA chapter, I still show leadership in and out of the classroom. In 4-H, I have multiple leadership positions. I am on the Polk County Council, which involves running the Polk County Fair, and being an active volunteer in the 4-H Building during

My most fulfilling leadership experience is my work with the local middle school in instituting FFA recruitment presentations in the 6th, 7th, and 8th grade classrooms. When I was in middle school, I had no intention of joining the FFA. Today, I am chapter president. My own experience illustrates that any new member can profoundly impact our FFA chapter. This recruitment event gives me hope that I can influence students who do not believe their place is in the FFA and inspire them by proving I am a walking example of the contrary. Consequently, this is my most fulfilling leadership experience because it allows me to provide to students the same opportunity that I was blessed with four years ago.

Leadership can be about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that the impact lasts in your absence. The leadership program has been such a wonderful experience for those within the district. There are so many positive things that have come out of the program so far. The fundamentals which include Myer's Briggs Type Indicator have given the groups a great way to connect to one another and get to know each other better. This can continue within each school and classroom to help build on and create a positive environment for adult-adult, adult-student and student-student relationships. Action research is another way to learning about improving schools and empowering educators. This is going to be

I have had different leadership roles throughout my time here at Redwood. I have been an FFA officer for two years now, and in those two years I have been a leader to those in my chapter. As an FFA officer, my leadership was based on providing the member with someone who they could follow their guidance and as someone to encourage them to continue down their path involved with our chapter. From encouraging the freshman, who are brand new to not only our chapter but to highschool to step out of their comfort zone and attend a meeting they never would have attended or to get over a fear and participating in a public speaking event, or to encouraging our juniors and seniors, kids who I’d refer to as “seasoned” in our chapter to continue to participate

Throughout the semester we have had many conversations relating to diversity, time management, conflict management, as well as community service. Interestingly enough, we have not had an explicit conversation regarding the qualities of a leader, or what the title even means, since the beginning of the course when we wrote our leadership statements. At the beginning of this course, I described leadership as intuition, awareness, humility, courage, setting an example, and the willingness to be a team player. Through the conversations we have had, I now know this is not all it takes.

I think and every successful teacher will agree with me that promoting the success of every student is the main value of any educational professional and it is very important for a leader to demonstrate these traits. What is leadership? Some people think that it is good to be a boss and it is easy to rule any organization. Leadership is more than just to rule any organization. It is the development of a practice around a mission or vision and an ability to inspire others to do the same. There are three sets of practices make up this basic core of successful leadership practices: setting directions, developing people and redesigning the organization. Foster (1989) says, “Leadership differs from conventional administration in much the same way that education differs from training (p.10).” This speaks to results- to the why of teaching. And the value of a leader can be determined by their results. If their aim is high-quality education (an admittedly vague term), academic success, and well-being of each student then this is the standard by which they should be judged. Burns admonishes that “power and leadership are measured by the degree of

Throughout my years of experience in education, the most powerful moments are when students draw parallels of theories with practices. Therefore, having the opportunity to analyze various leadership theories, along with the information that I have learned in Dr. McGhee’s “Leadership Theory and Practice” class, has led to a memorable and invaluable experience. Moreover, I found the leadership analysis report from the interview with the exemplary leader significantly thrilling because it allowed me to apply all knowledge I gathered during this course and make real world connections. I considered Mrs. Magana as the person for my interview because she has made a great impact as a leader here in Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD). Mrs. Magana’s greatest assets are the colleagues that she leads. As a leader she would be the first to say that without a dedicated and committed team who enthusiastically choose to follow, the team can accomplish little. She also says that the best investment is the time spent with her team members, learning about each team member 's wants, needs, values, and priorities. She uses this information to help each individual grow and prioritize his or her talents, in order to provide each individual, the opportunity to excel and advance. Knowing this about Ms. Magana inspired me to continue to learn about her leadership style even further. She has served in education for 33

Do your teens have plenty of leadership potential, but not an avenue in which to develop it? Youth leadership clubs provide high school students with a structure in which they can practice and nurture their high school leadership skills.
