Reflection Paper On Leadership Activities

An example of one of my leadership roles was on the first day of class. I was chosen to lead in a group communication. We were presented with an assignment on characteristics of group communication. The assignment involved factors and behavior that contributed to our group. We determined that communication was the most important factor. The skills the group had to establish were a common goal, working together in small groups, and synergy. See Chapter 1. Another example of a leadership role was on the discussion panel project. The project was very challenging and labor intensive. We learned how technology and computer-mediated technology effect communication. See Chapter 15.

I have not had many leadership roles because I do not seek them. That said the few roles I have had have always been particularly important. I have worked in the Registrar’s Office for Mrs.

I took upon myself his responsibilities and did what needed to be done. I attended meetings, led troop activities, and helped our Troop Leaders. At my church, I often take charge in a portion of our service. The designated leader is hardly ever present so I step in and conduct the meeting. In 2014, I was called as the leader of a group in my church.

One activity where I had to show leadership qualities was for managing the field hockey team. I assist the coaches in various tasks such as putting the stats up on the website and recording anything that

From the group Biblical Integration Paper, it was understood that servant-leadership is not only a gift of purpose that God places in the hearts of His people, but it is also a calling in one’s life to truly touch the lives of others in need. Living a successful life, as a servant-leader is not one that focuses on self-fulfillment, rather it is in seeking a fulfillment that comes from Christ when one pours him/herself out for the sake of others. It is through servant-leadership that one is able to bring hope into hopeless situations (Group Integration Paper,

For the last year, I was in the position of women’s ministry leader at church which I found to be much harder than I thought. It was not that I felt I could not lead but I found you cannot lead those that do not want to be led. I was led to do activities that would bring a gospel message to the women of the church while having fellowship. I found that day to day activities were much more important to the ladies in our church. The events that were the most successful, unfortunately were the ones that were of fellowship, little worship time and cost each person money to participate. My biggest challenge in this was coming to terms with the fact that the ladies have the choice whether or not they want to deepen their relationship with Christ through fellowship and the gospel. God gave us choices and I have to accept that some do not always choose to

Just like him i love to lead in my town. Having the opportunity to do fill many leading opportunities i take advantage of all of them. In school i have the position of FCA president and participate in other clubs ranging from student council to pep club. In church I get the opportunity each Sunday morning to do a mini series with a friend called “Amason Grace Time”, it’s a great time where we get to sit with our youth group and just be encouragers, speaking God’s truth in a simple lesson made for teens. As a leader and christian, I want people to follow me as I share about Jesus, then ultimately learn to know God.

I started my leadership in the Church through a program called Parish Ministry Associate (PMA). My pastor and my congregation recognized the leadership qualities and wanted me to be a pastor. However, I refused to do so, but agreed to go through this lay leadership program. After doing theological studies for 3 years I was installed in 2007 and served a congregation in a rural area, preaching and sacrament ministry. I value this program very much. My congregation identified two members who would be good lay leaders, who love to share the word of God and asked me to talk to them.

Amy Warren is a leader, mother, and wife. She works as the teaching leader at Bible Study Fellowship, a global operation for women to gather in local communities and discuss the Bible. She and other women meet once a week to discuss, learn, and apply biblical foundations in each other’s lives. Recently, she was promoted from substitute teaching leader to head teaching leader at her local BSF. Through years of experience, she has learned how to be an effective leader and instill a vision in others to create a new, reimagined BSF for the upcoming generations of women. Her responsibilities include interviewing for leadership positions, creating presentations about the week’s topic, and meeting with leaders once a week.

Even if I am just one individual and one leader, I want to be partake in the privilege that God has given me to enter into his ministry. If being a Young Life leader is His calling for my life, then I want to respond and help other kids find what their souls have been searching for. God has showered with so many blessings on me, both in and outside of YoungLife, and I want to give my time, energy, and heart to YoungLife’s ministry and most importantly, God. Although I know that leading will be difficult and I will have to sacrifice much, I know that it is nothing compared to the sacrifice of Jesus. Although I cannot physically lay down my life for these kids, I want to offer a picture of how God laid down His life for me and the world. I do not want my time as a YoungLife leader to be about myself. Even though it will be difficulty to maintain this mentality, I want my time being a Young Life leader to be about those whom we are ministering to and most importantly, Christ. Even if I can offer just a glimpse of His sacrifice and love, I know that my time and service at Young Life will be significant and

It is not an easy task to carry out public leadership, you have to know almost everything, counseling marriage on the verge breaking down, baptizing dying babies, administering Holy Communion for dying individuals, leading marriage ceremony with unusual and complicated scenario. It is also not easy to accept ministry as God calling rather than as job placement or vocational opportunity. It is tough to accept the people, their culture, tradition and the whole identity. God called us to ministry so that we will be able exercise his full authority (Matt 28:16-18) with full humility (Philippians 2:6, 2Cor 8:9, Rom 5:6-8). We have to deny ourselves and follow the footsteps of Jesus our Lord (Luke 9:23).

I never thought to be a Christian leader. As a matter of fact, I am a person who did not know about God for 26 years. I was the center of my life, and there was no room for God to enter. Even when I was attending church service, I was trying not to be exposed to other church people. In other words, I was the kind of person who was afraid to walk into a life of faith. However, in the past three years, God has changed me in many ways, and showed me so many miraculous things. And, finally here I am. Being a Christian leader seems the most challenging job in the world. I am working as the chairman of a youth ministry, and walking on the path to be a church leader. When God called me to work for the

This ministry context will focus on church leaders in positions such as youth pastor and Sunday school teacher. These ministries aim to provide leadership, encouragement, and training to young people of all ages. Church leaders are placed in position because of their wisdom, restraint, and qualifications. They are supposed to be in position as models for others in the local church.

What defines leadership? There are a number of definitions of the meaning of leadership including but not limited to the theories of leadership and how leadership should work. In my opinion, every individual has different ways of confronting situations and there is not one leadership style or theory that will be flawless for any given situation. However, to be a successful educational leader, it is crucial to understand and be familiar with the various theories and styles of leadership as well as our personal tendencies to nurture a personal leadership style. Despite the method used to confront a situation, it’s the outcome of success that will determine which leadership style or theory should be used. The following

In class, so far, we have discussed many different topics about leadership. One being different leadership theories. The one that I feel most represents the leader I want to be in the future is servant leadership. When we discussed servant leadership it was defined as this leadership model is based on the leader and the followers wanting to serve others. Basically, this means the servant leader you put your focus on the needs of others before your own. The followers goal is to serve clients and the leader’s goal is to serve the employee and implement the organization mission statement. The leader supports other employees by noticing their goals and provide the proper support to help them reach those goals. This
