This is what I am excited about and will use my plan for as well. I know my areas of weaknesses that I needed to improve in order to become that leader I want and need to be and I now know how to get there!
There are two kinds of people in this world, followers and leaders. Followers are the people that never take a leadership role in any activity. "They are more valued by followers and have higher performing teams." (Cherry 2014) However, leaders are the ones that use their leadership skills to make a difference in this world, such as presidents, teachers, or even college graduates. Leadership is not something you can learn from a book, but you have to gain this skill through experiences such as holding an office, organizing an event, speaking in front of people, or participating in a leadership program.
Effective leader experiment and take risks regardless of small failure, error or mistake to make a change (Kouzes & Posner 2011).

This class thankfully had an easy work load which helped with my senioritus, but still challenged me to think about different leadership styles, concepts, and what it truly means to be a leader.

I learned a lot about leadership and I learned a lot about myself in a leadership
