My involvement in the community started when I was extremely young. At the age of 5, I was helping serve food to the homeless on Christmas morning. As I got older, I volunteered in soup kitchens, recovery programs, and even local after-school programs. In addition, over the years, I have partaken in organizing events such as a Thanksgiving Food Basket Drive as well as a Children’s Christmas Party. Through these opportunities, I have managed to obtain multiple leadership roles such as being an academic mentor, community outreach organizer, as well as a volunteer marketing coordinator. All in all, serving my community is not just an activity that I do, it is a lifestyle that I live.
Beyond all that, the most important leadership role I have obtained within my life is being a role model to the children and young adults in my community. I have been a Sunday School teacher, Youth Leader, as well as simply a friend to many children over the

I found this to be so significant because I realized these children that I taught every week, now looked to me as an example. I came to this realization at the age of thirteen, when I crumbled my cornbread into a bowl of soup. Then, soon after, I looked up and a group of elementary schoolers had done the same. They watched me, listen to me, and respected me. I did not take this lightly, instead I made it a point to be kind, stress the importance of education, and be the best representation for them that I could. I believe our youth is the future of our community. Therefore, if I am able to set an example that leads these children down the right path and be a contributing factor to their success, I will. Ultimately, there is one large chain of leaders who raise the next generation leaders, so that the cycle toward equality, justice, and overall positive change is never
I have been able to help serve the poor in the community as well as focus on legislative goals. This is why I believe I could be of valuable service in not only getting your youth engaged in active community service but organizing it in a way that would truly help the community and leave the youth feeling deeply satisfied with their
I demonstrate my outstanding achievements in service through the clubs and teams I participate in. I’ve organized many teen outreach events targeted towards middle and high schoolers such as lock-ins and dances, but I have also organized community service events targeted for the whole base, for example barbeques. A recent example of this would be the Ramstein Color Run taking place next month. Being a Girl Scout for 7 years taught me to appreciate and enjoy taking action in the community. From a young age, I became used to helping around my community.
Throughout my high school career, I have taken opportunities to be an active community member through community service. Service that I have participated in has given me experience being a mentor and educator. As a link Crew leader, I volunteered my time to help the incoming freshmen in my community/ school district assimilate into their new environment. I went to training, followed a link crew curriculum, guided them in activities, offered advice, and served as a role model for the students. I helped them feel welcome and prepared to take on high school.
I always serve my community in any way possible. I am always a good leader for groups, sports, etc., I always welcome new ideas even if
As the oldest child, I serve as a role model for my family. I also serve as a role model for my peers. I am an MVP (Mentors In Violence Prevention) mentor at my high
I’ve always been inspired to help others and give back to the community. As early as 4th grade I raised enough money to go to an orphanage in Cameroon and donate clothes and toys to the children in person. In 6th grade I started selling my handmade crochet scarves to raise money for care packages for domestic violence victims. After I made the care packages I gave them in person to victims at the YWCA. Simultaneously I launched a petition on change.org in hopes for a law that protect children against emotional abuse.
I chose my mother Baoping Bai as the leader for my leadership analysis paper. She is my compass in my life. I have learned lots from her. My mother is a very good leader and she can make always make good decision, employers respect her.
Leadership Working in the hotel industry in various managerial positions have taught me a lot of what such posts are all about, however, most of the time one tends to forget what leadership is all about when his or her focus in much more on achieving goals set by the directors. I recall my first taste of what leadership really is, going back several years when I was still a young boy in the Scouts. In those days, I used to look up at the scout leaders as role models and eventually I also did go up the ranks, but in those times it was more the fun and play element of it all! When I started to work in the hotel industry in my early teen's things got a little bit different, I could understand that working in a team sometimes it was much easier following “orders” given to us by one of our co-workers rather than from the manager himself.
1. Describe an example of your leadership experience in which you have positively influenced others, helped resolve disputes, or contributed to group efforts over time. I consider myself a leader, i believe this because i am the type of person that feels like if i am not the one to do it then it will not be done the right way. Whenever i would work in groups i would designate myself to be the one to do the harder assignment, because i only trusted that would take it serious, not anyone else. Also, whenever i do anything that involves a team, i like to take control, because i feel like i am the best one to work under pressure or i can choose the best solution for any situation.
From my point of view , Leadership has more to it than I can possibly imagine. I define leadership as the art of enabling a group of people get to a specific destination. As a leader your main focus was to enable your followers lead theselves. As i think deeper i realise a person cannot choose to be a leader. I think a lot of the time people take on leadership positions without knowing.
Over the years I have been very active in my community. I am a teacher aid of the organisation Saint Joan of Arc Religious Education, a organization spreads the catholic religion and values to the youth that develop character to enrich those around them. As a volunteer at Saint Joan of Arc Religious, I monitored the hallways, aided 20+ teachers in their classrooms, provided childcare for 200+ students, and locked classrooms after class. The community service accomplishment that I'm most proud of is the work I do to help set up the teachers lesson for the some days. As a result of my community service, I gained hands-on experience in teaching about the catholic religion.
WHERE DOES THIS STUDY POSTION ON? This study defines Leadership is as system of interaction between leader on the one hand, and followers and situations on the other hand. Leadership refers to leader inducing followers to act for certain goals that represent the values and the motivations – the wants and needs, the aspirations and expectations – of both leaders and followers. Whenever I use the term ‘leadership’ in this study it means political leadership.
Abstract; Leadership; A misunderstood concept Theories of leadership and management are as complex (Curral, Marques-Quinteiro, Gomes & Lind, 2016) and numerous as the individuals (Vaughan & Turner) they seek to define and are at best poorly understood, (Batistic et al, 2017) ideas from business, psychology, and medicine are helpful, however, knowledge of individual strengths(Brandt & Edinger 2015) is imperative to understanding the nature of the leadership of Science and Maths in the Special School.

Since I was a child, I would take traits I’d learn from others and try to implement what I liked and disliked about them to help form the person I wanted to be. For instance, from my dad I saw what it meant to be empathic, strategize with others during their failures, and to praise others in public and criticize them in private. From my friends and teachers I learned how they studied so that I could get better at studying. I also read autobiographies about people I admired—Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Steve Jobs to absorb a little of them into the person I want to be. I was taking the traits of those I looked up to help form the person I wanted to be.
APPLYING THEORY Leadership plays an important role in one's life. If one is a business owner he needs to be a leader in the field of your business.
