Peer Leadership And The Chick-Fil-A Leadership Academy

Firstly, in my Academic Career, I have held a multitude of leadership roles. My sophomore year , I was a class representative for Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America, commonly known as FCCLA. It was my duty to alert members and keep them up to date regarding meetings and activities. As a representative of FCCLA, I learned how to work as a unit leader and a team member.That same school year, I ran for the district office of secretary for FCCLA. The nomination and election process, gave me the opportunity to grow and nurture my leadership abilities. It was eminently challenging; but I learned the importance of discipline and hard work. I accomplished my goal and was nominated Secretary for FCCLA. This office allowed me to meet plenty

Since childhood, I had a chance to develop my leadership and organizational skills through sports and had my school team win many competitions. My school is one of the places where my leadership qualities are valued as I often become a head of many activities, such as staging plays, organizing shows and school trips with my teachers. Being a leader gives me the opportunity to work in a team and consider my peers’ ideas to make our plans creative and enjoyable for everyone. My personal traits help me to gain trust and respect of my peers as they believe me to be a positive, open-minded and reliable person. I have learned to solve problems and conflicts thanks to this great experience of leadership, and I am always ready to assist my peers when it is

A leadership experience in what I positively influence others and helped resolve disputes was Link Crew. Link Crew is a program where we help incoming freshmen to high school and show them around school and help them out on anything they need like homework. When I was a link crew leader I helped many kids who had low grades. While I was in this program I noticed that many kids had low grades and didn't turn in work or even their homework I did my best and talked to them about how they will struggle so much to get there credits later on some kids listen and did all their work where they at least passed their classes with a D or C. I had people who I got to meet during this I communicated with many people who joined this program and helped many kids. Students who come to high school think it will be very easy like in middle school but it will get harder each year. Many times I was helping the students I feel like It influenced them to work harder and be better in school and help each other in some ways. Link Crew was such a good program that it was where others students helped other students. I showed many leadership experience by joining this program.

My personal experiences of leadership started when I was younger, roughly 7 years old, I was elected the captain of my travel soccer team. At the time I didn’t think much of it, nor did I have any extra duties that I was explicitly told that I needed to perform. Later throughout the season, I started to notice my teammates mimicking my styles and techniques and I highly enjoyed this feeling of being looked up to. I didn 't realize until years after that the recognition and pride I felt was leadership. This privilege of being captain was the first time I had realized that people weren 't necessarily following my actions because I was extraordinarily skilled, but because I provided this role model status with my confidence and encouragement. Some of the most valuable leaderships traits that I acquired and fortified are:

Being involved in everything I do, my leadership skills have developed naturally through experience. I can think creatively and critically and offer advice to others. Through past mistakes and other’s opinions, I have learned to make my failures into successes. Through many organizations and extracurriculars, I have gained many perspectives on various topics. For instance, at BAE Systems, I take part in hands-on learning with other students who are as dedicated as me. This allows me to learn new perspectives in a cooperative environment. We constantly communicate with each other, sharing our ideas on how to solve the task at hand.

Being a leader has always been extremely important to me. The past few years I have held many leadership positions to deepen my skills as a leader. Some of my most notable leadership positions of high school were that I was the secretary of my class, the secretary of my school’s National Honor Society, a member of the Youth Council for the Teen Leadership Corps, and a Student Ambassador for my high school. I have recently been chosen as a Peer Leader for the College of Business Administration (CBA), meaning that I will be available to help incoming freshman with whatever they may need as they make the transition to college. I was also chosen by the dean to give a speech at one of the largest high school visits for the CBA in order to inspire students to choose to come to Bowling Green. This was a very important experience for me because I had many high school seniors come up to me after the speech and ask me questions and reached out for advice from me. It is important to me that people value my advice because I believe that giving good advice is an imperative part of being a leader.

I learned how to be a leader through my experiences in the softball community. A couple years back I tried out for a big local organization called the Bandits. It was suppose to be the best team around with high caliber athletes. And that’s just what we

As a student leader who is heavily involved in my school and community, I’ve had an abundance of opportunities and experiences to learn and grow from. Because of these opportunities, I’ve been able to discover things about myself and my community that have arrived as a pleasant surprise. Although each experience I’ve had during my high school career has impacted me in some way, whether the impact be immense or miniscule, no experience has quite shaped me as a leader as my experience with the Chick-fil-a Leader Academy did.

I have had various goals of being a leader at my school. Most of those goals involved sports offered at CVCA, specifically in football. Being named co-captain of the varsity football team, I was able to accomplish one of my biggest goals.

I show leadership through my evolvement in Key Club. As a member of my school’s Key Club Board for three years, I participated in the planning and execution of many service activities.

Two prominent qualities I have that would benefit the UGA community is my hard work, determination and creativity to follow my dreams, and the commitment to help others. I am a Georgia girl, born and raised, so it's not surprising that since I can remember, I've wanted to go to the University of Georgia to continue my education after high school. I've worked hard getting exceptional grades and maintaining a 3.9 GPA in order to accomplish this goal while taking a rigorous curriculum including 12 AP classes and dedicating time to write a novel. I have always loved reading, and I decided to write my own crime drama novel that I hope to have published when it is complete. I have also written many short stories on various writing prompts because

The position of being a role model for my fellow peers on the team was and is still a rather new and interesting experience. This is because growing up and being a part of multiple athletic teams, it was fairly easy to look up to my captain and coaches at the time when I would be down due to my performances in the game. However, becoming a leader has enlightened and taught me multiple skills and assets that I lacked before being put in a position of charge.

Peer Leadership is one of the newest programs on campus. Last year marked the first round of interviewing and recruitment for this program dedicated to mentorship, positivity, and advocacy. This year, Mrs. Reyes has organized a sixth period class full of dedicated leaders. They do many different projects in the class. For example, they work with counseling to link up with kids who need someone to talk to, functioning as relatable confidants for students in need. Another activity Peer Leadership does is work with students on study skills and tutoring. However, Peer Leadership is currently working on its biggest project yet. They've dedicated the entire month of October to the Teen Safe Driving Campaign, sponsored by the Allstate Foundation and the Safety Center.

My leadership can be seen in my experience as the Director of Resource in my school of 600 students, Preschool through the eighth grade. I supported parents, teachers and administrators as they maneuvered the obstacles involved in identifying learning needs as well as the challenges that follow after identification. I worked directly with teacher and families to complete the necessary paperwork and advocated on their behalf with the public school system. Under the role as director, I was solely responsible for

Confidence and leadership reveals everything about an individual’s unique personality. Whether demonstrated in sports or everyday life, leadership is extremely valuable in the sense of working well with others. I have learned to develop this trait in sports, work, and school. I have especially demonstrated this trait during my junior year by participating in York County’s Distinguished Young Women’s Program. Not only did this allow me to develop a relationship with strangers, but also allowed me to explore outside of my comfort zone and project myself to a higher degree than
