Reflection On My Best Self

Leadership has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have always found myself taking on leadership roles, whether it be by volunteering or coordinating different projects for the benefit of my school or community. Taking on leadership positions has allowed me to develop skills in communication, delegation, and managing multiple tasks and deadlines. As a member of National Honor Society and an officer of Student Council, I am presented with various opportunities to show my leadership skills. For example, I have been in charge of planning multiple pep assemblies for my school. Helping coordinate blood and canned food drives, angel trees, as well as organize an abundance of fundraising events has created a sense of reliability

I believe I have many leadership skills and experiences. I am currently the Vice President of the Red Cross Club, and the Historian of Club MED. In addition, I have volunteered to be a leader in Vacation Bible School and an assistant in Korean School. Lastly, I act as a leader also in the classrooms assisting students in subjects that I feel confidant. Being a leader allow me to learn many technical skills and improves my communication with others. It required many responsibility and patient. Yet, I suppose being a leader has made me an optimistic

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.

Once you have all of the responses in from your survey group, start to group the responses together into themes. Some of the themes may reflect strengths you were aware of, but they may also identify things that you hadn 't realized were strengths because they come so naturally to you.

Within Sports Coaching Literature, it has been established that reflection is a generic term for intellectual and effective activities, in which individuals examine their experiences, in order to develop new understanding and intrapersonal appreciation (Knowles, et al., 2006). Research in this field has advocated reflective practice as an approach to professional development which positively impacts coaching effectiveness (Cropley, et al., 2012). This reflective report shall discuss, analyse and evaluate my own personal development throughout my first semester spent studying at UCFB, in order to develop new understanding and intrapersonal appreciation, and help explore my decisions and experiences, increasing understanding of

Leadership is a skill that one is not able to learn based on a set teaching, but rather a skill based off personal experiences. I am the leader, everywhere I turn, everyone I talk to, from a school game to a class party – feeling like I am critiqued for everything I do and say.

One of my personal experiences that has developed my leadership skills was when I was a mentor to young children during Sunday school throughout the duration of my high school career. Mentoring these children has given me a vast amount of great leadership qualities due to all of the responsibilities that come with looking after young children which gave me practice of looking after people like nurses do. There was diversity throughout the Sunday school class as well, not by varying religion, but due to the dissimilar backgrounds of children who came

Leadership. Like all ideas leadership can be defined in a variety of different ways, and so it become challenge to choose just one way to word such a definition. To me a strong leader is one who can effectively develop an idea which they can they can then achieve by conveying this idea to others and motivating them to reach the goal with themselves. I have no doubt that I possess some of these qualities but certainly not all of them. I believe that I am quite strong at developing a process to reach to reach this said goal, and also at directing people to reach the goal by following my plan. At the same time I am aware of certain leadership skills that I lack. The most predominant one for me would most definitely be my difficulty in establishing

To be an effective leader, it is essential to have great leadership traits. On the other hand, nobody is perfect so you may have some leadership qualities that could use some improvement. A good leader should have traits to lead in all different situations. I personally have many leadership traits that are transferable and can be used in many different situations. I also have skills that can be worked on to improve. I will work towards this to make myself a better and more effective leader.

The leadership strengths I feel I have are: organization, motivating, understanding, empathy, and problem solving. I thrive off being organized and when things are not organized I tend to feel out of control. I can easily help motivate others when they are feeling lost or unsure of themselves. I think to be able to motivate others you have to also be understanding and empathic. Being able to relate with others in all these different aspects helps me solve problems that may be presented. The fact that disorganization makes in feel out of control can be a limitation for me. When things are unorganized, it is difficult to know which direction I need to go.

Leadership has been one of my strengths from childhood. I was an all-round student during my high school, was good academically and eminent in sports and extracurricular activities. My leadership qualities and maturity got me elected as the school captain in my high school. I have led my school with to excel in different sports leagues & cultural meets.

Wherever there are people, there will be problems. Often times, the real problem lies underneath a myriad of more complicated issues. Only by discovering the actual dilemma, can an individual address the pervading issue. Through an appealing narrative of a person facing real life difficulties in his personal and professional life, The Arbinger Institute bring to light the undeniable way people betray their true self and undermine their own success. Through personal self-examination and application of the principles presented in this book, I have been able to make the necessary adjustments to view others appropriately.

Becoming a leader is a skill that grows throughout one’s life. Individuals are not born leaders rather the skills and traits are developed over time. For me personally, I have broken down my life’s leadership training into three phases, the early years, my teen years, and my adult years. Each segment is unique and builds for the others. Every phase has been absolutely necessary to build my leadership philosophy.
