Quoted by Ronald Reagan “The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.” A manager gets things done via planning and delegation. Tasks are usually assigned and results are obtained by other efforts. A leader gets things done by holding a vision, modeling behaviors and usually have very inspiring actions. A manager is defined as, “An individual who is in charge of a certain group or tasks” (Business Dictionary). A leader is defined as “The person who leads or commands a group, organizations” (Business Dictionary).

I would like to become a leader for C341 because of my personal experience in the course. I began as a struggling student, scoring only a 45% on the first exam. Although it seemed like a losing battle to salvage my grade in the course, I did just that. I scored a whopping 30 points higher on my second exam, and earned an A- on my third exam!

However, I credit the majority of my success to the words of encouragement from my professor, Dr. Laulhé. He planted the idea that I was capable of passing, and even doing well, in the course.I cultivated this idea and found myself doing well in organic chemistry, despite its historic reputation for being

This year specifically I have been placed in charge of the recycling program and the road cleanup program.

The 2017 PVCC Civic Leadership Conference was a great experience and was a lot of fun. It was not a conference where the speakers were the only talking and expressing their opinions, the audience also got involved and asked question and expressed their opinions to the speakers as well. The first night of the conference was about State Government and Higher Education. Then the second day was packed with four choices ranging from ‘What to do with the Confederate Monuments’ to ‘Students Make a Difference’. Unfortunately, people could only go to two of the four choices during the morning session. There were a few things that could be improved to make the conference better next year. This conference hopefully taught everyone there that they can
