The Leadership Of Jacob Orgel

“As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others” according to Bill Gates, while John Maxwell tells people that “Leadership is influence - nothing more, nothing less.” Neither of them completely capture leadership, but at the same time, neither of them are wrong. To be a leader, one must empower and influence those they lead in order to get the results they want. Neither one mentions that a leader must be confident in themselves and show others that they are confident with the decisions they make for themselves and others. As president of the Italian National Honor Society at my school, it is my job to promote excellence in the course, as well as in the community. Since our society values giving back to the community, we put an emphasis on community service. Many of the other students in the society worried about completing their hours. I showed them that they did not need to worry about getting their service hours by completing all of my required hours for both National and Italian Honor Societies before the end of November.

A lot of the girls have been mentors and peer leaders to me before their process, and remained the same people after. I value their genuine nature. As for their presence on campus, it is very positive and community oriented. The young women of Xi Gamma always seem to go the extra mile when putting on programs for our campus community. I also respect the work that grad chapter puts in for the surrounding community. Since I am from the east side of Columbus, I can serve as a liaison between the organization and the surrounding community to help create more initiatives that cater to what the community needs the most, especially for young minority women. Lastly I will contribute my past leadership experience with executive boards, and class government to the organization. One of the biggest thing I learned throughout my leadership experience that you must always be a servant leader, you cannot tell a group a people that you are leading to do something you wouldn’t do yourself. If I am granted leadership I will lead by example in hopes to inspire others to do the

As a leader, I try to inspire and have an influence on people. I see leadership as a responsibility to be a good role model for others. Therefore, from the people I have interacted with, I make sure no one is afraid to say or give an opinion on something and I’m there to listen. For example, in National Honor Society we learn the principles which are scholarship, service, character and most importantly, leadership. As the Vice President of National Honor Society, I have hope for success in each member. This year the president and I have teamed up to create new opportunities for all of the members of National Honor Society to contribute to our community. Not only do they lend a hand, but they are also willing to come up with new ideas to help,

It is evident that Schulich Leaders are individuals who possess the ability to leave an impressionable impact on their school and beyond. Throughout my educational pathway, I have consistently dedicated my time and effort for the greater good of my fellow students, staff, and community members. I have always been naturally inclined to lead individuals, as it gives me the opportunity to express and develop my capabilities as an exemplary role model. Particularly, I demonstrate these characteristics through a variety of extracurricular activities and clubs, where my tendency to propose, carry out, and offer insight on the issues at hand never goes unnoticed. Due to the fact that I am a diligent and thoughtful individual who never rests until my endeavours materialize lends to the notion that I will undoubtedly make an outstanding Schulich Leader.

I have been in many clubs and organizations where the leaders in charge led through fear and not through respect, and it is the individuals such as those who have inspired me to become a leader myself. There is a major

A strong leader is somebody that puts the members first, that builds up their local, that understands the issues, and that contributes to the advancement of our movement; and our movement is defending good paying jobs, fighting employers that want to cut our wages and privatize our work, and someone who's not afraid to do the dirty work to

I also show leadership in track with one of my relay groups by getting the baton, making sure that everyone has practiced their handoffs, and cheering them on during the race. I also show leadership by being in charge of the recreation center at my church’s vacation bible school and running the technology. I show the service level of National Honor Society by helping at my church’s fair stand, swiss steak supper, and doing various things around the church. I also show the service level because I helped at GLOW with one of my classmates, teaching 5th graders. I show the character level by helping other students around the school with personal problems or class problems that they need help with.

As one of the sixteen members of the inaugural class of Terry Scholars at UT Arlington, I have proven my ability to lead. My passion for leadership has given me the initiative to get involved with as many organizations as possible, and network within those groups. Freshman Leaders on Campus is the perfect medium through which I can refine my skills and collaborate with other leaders all across campus.

For my student leader interview, I interviewed Cordaro (Cord) Murry-H. He is a junior here at the University of Toledo and someone I personally look up for multiple reasons. Cord gives off a vibe that just says, “Hey! I’m a natural leader!” It makes band flow easier when he gives instructions and it also makes him much more approachable than the head director. Cord is what I imagine a leader who is dedicated to their followers looks like.

To inspire and influence others, a leader must possess many skills and abilities. As motivational speaker Peter Northouse, states, “a leader should be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant” (Northouse, 2013) Moving an entire group of individuals toward a singular goal is a considerable undertaking. Without effective communication skills and a clear vision of what needs to be accomplished, one will feel like they are trying to herd cats rather than leading.

I have had different leadership roles throughout my time here at Redwood. I have been an FFA officer for two years now, and in those two years I have been a leader to those in my chapter. As an FFA officer, my leadership was based on providing the member with someone who they could follow their guidance and as someone to encourage them to continue down their path involved with our chapter. From encouraging the freshman, who are brand new to not only our chapter but to highschool to step out of their comfort zone and attend a meeting they never would have attended or to get over a fear and participating in a public speaking event, or to encouraging our juniors and seniors, kids who I’d refer to as “seasoned” in our chapter to continue to participate

I had a very stereotypical view of what a leader looked like, but my internship was truly eye opening. When I was working it was clear that there were people who were in charge, but they never treated the other employees as if they were below them. One situation that sticks out to me is when I was taking part in a meeting, with the head of the department, my supervisor and an attorney. At the meeting they were discussing a case and they asked me for my opinion and they took everything I had to say seriously and treated me as if I had the same power as they did. To me that was really shocking and amazing because there I was just an intern and they were people who have power and they actually wanted to know my opinion. That situation and many others like those changed my view of leadership and leaders. That being a leader doesn’t always mean controlling

As preparation for this future, students in college should interact with others in club activities. Assuming a leadership position in a club is a way to prepare for the work world. Many students earn respect by taking on a leadership role. These experiences will be helpful when

Ever since the creation of man, society has been trying to achieve harmony between its citizens and establish a utopia in which everyone can live in peace and harmony. During the 1800s many citizens of capitalist countries believed that they were living in this utopia, however the working class begged to differ. It was not until the mid-1800s that someone finally stood up for these proletarians as this man believed that the exploitation of members of the working class was unfair. This person was called Karl Marx. This German philosopher inspired workers to rise up and challenge injustices and exploitations. In addition, his views on life and the social structure of his time revolutionized the way people think. It was not until Karl Marx

Student leaders come in all shapes and sizes. They choose to lead based on their skills and preferences. Whether in social groups, athletics, or within the classroom, student leaders demonstrate certain traits that benefit both themselves and those they are leading. Generally speaking, leaders are classified as role models within the student body. They are the students who challenge the status quo, who ask questions and demand answers. They inspire athletic teams and social organizations alike; they bring to light the issues that an organization or club faces and work toward a solution. The traits and skills that these leaders exhibit socially, athletically, and academically can be both inherit and learned. The
