I have always known I love change, but from this class, I learned change is the hallmark of a leader. As John C. Maxwell says in The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, “Growth = Change.”The leadership assessments allowed me to understand myself in a new way. Because I am a curious green thinker, I need explanations and answers to understand my world. I tend to see the big picture of a project and my mind motivates me toward something new or improved. I am curious about new opportunities because I
most influential and area of class I saw the most growth in myself was during the days I led class discussion. The first topic I had the pleasure of presenting to the class was on self-awareness. Leading discussions allowed me to really comprehend the material and I learned a lot from these experiences. The two topics that I gained the most knowledge in came from the discussions and the topics were self-awareness and environmental influence. Additionally, I saw growth in my understanding of the topics

difficult class. In the past I have enjoyed online classes because I can work at my own pace and do my homework and learning when I had the time. When I look back, I have realized how much work I have put into a two credit hour class and this class was not what I was expecting at all. I was thinking the class would be laid back and enjoyable. Sometimes I enjoyed the class, but most of the time this class was a pain. From this class though, I feel that my leadership journey has changed and I have grown
My experience in the student leadership program was interesting and informative. These are two descriptive words that stand out in my mind about the whole program. There were times in the student leadership program when I questioned myself about being part of the class, but I overcame this once I reflected on the many things that we have learned. From the guest speakers to the projects, the class has always kept me thinking. First, the program was very informative. I took in so much information
this class, leadership was something I hoped to enhance throughout the duration of this course and in the next few years. Through the course, I have learned more about myself and the type of leader I am through the relational leadership model. Learning about the strengths I have as an individual, the leadership skills and styles, working with other people through communication and listening.

Before entering my Perspective on Leadership class, I never really thought about leadership that much. My thoughts on leadership were fairly basic and simple. To me, leadership meant to be that person that takes charge of situations and declares their authority over others. However, I learned that leadership is much more than just having authority over a situation or others and that there are many different types of leaders. Before coming to college, I thought it would be somewhat like high school
States armed forces. Reflecting back on my officer training up to present, I can agree with that quote. Early in my training process with ROTC, many of my mentors told me that most of my leadership development would take place when I fail at something. Though I knew their advice held some merit, I did not fully grasp what they meant. Even now, I still am learning from their mentorship. As the topic of leadership development is explored, we will examine leadership failures, successes, and challenges that
Hopkins ID: C2D4DE Leadership action plan The most important aspect of leadership that I will work on improving is developing and marinating a wide social network. Throughout my life, I could not build any relationship on grounds of self-interest. I and my 4 other siblings were raised on the idea that knowing people on the basis of pursuing a selfish advantage is completely unethical and unacceptable. During my career, I cannot count how many bridges I burned behind me. Obviously., I did not distinguish
This class has taught me much about leadership through the semester. Each chapter I learned something new about leadership. In this paper I will reflect on what I’ve learned chapter by chapter and how what I’ve learned has shaped my style of leadership. Being a leader: I never thought much about leadership prior to this class. I knew what leaders were in the sense of that they were the people in charge. That’s all I knew about leadership; leaders were people in charge. While that’s not necessarily
