Out of all leadership opportunities I have had, one stands out to me the most. The biggest event I was the leader of, was when I was in charge of the camping at Marquette Kennel Club's 2016 AKC dog show. I volunteered to be the the leader of camping, because in years past it had been a mess for the Marquette Kennel Club, and the exhibitors. Exhibitors in the past never made reservations, so when I took charge I decided that having camping reservations on the entry form was crucial. It was a lot of work organizing all of the reservations, and dealing with people but surprisingly I enjoyed it. I took joy in knowing that that would be the largest year yet for camping, and that maybe next year there could be even more people. The three characteristics
I’ve demonstrated leadership qualities in various ways throughout my time at high school. During the drafting competition, my group needed some confidence and someone there to help guide them to victory, and I was there to help them. A group works together, but sometimes you need a leader. This leader will help facilitate and get the group to do what they’re supposed to do. I think I helped ease off their nerves and I told them to relax and do how we practiced. This paid off because we placed first place and each of us
Involvement in marching band, field hockey, and various other activities has given me many opportunities to show leadership. My first leadership opportunity was in eighth grade when I became a WEB leader. While I was a WEB leader, I helped incoming sixth graders get adjusted to middle school life and find their classes on the first day. I also met up with the sixth graders in my group once a month at lunch and got to know them while I asked how school was going and helped them with any issues they had. In marching band, this past season I was a marching captain for my section. I helped the freshmen learn to march, demonstrated proper marching techniques for others, and gave advice to anyone having trouble with part of our marching show. At the start of field hockey season I showed leadership by helping new players learn to play field hockey by demonstrating how
Being a leader is no simple task. During my Eagle Scout project, I lead a range of people, from adults to youth. It was my job to make sure everyone was working and, that everyone was capable of doing their task. I had many issues doing this throughout my project because I am only one person and I can’t be everywhere at once. Thusly made being a leader a drudgery. But I had an incredible set of adults guiding me along the way, who taught me that being a leader was not doing everything myself, being a leader
What makes us who we are? To answer that question we must establish what we are. We are the most advanced generation of human being the world has ever seen. We as a people come up with new innovations and inventions every day that make life easier. It’s fairly easy to get caught up in what we are as a society and just think that who we are as well but, this isn 't the case. Who we are is also known as our personal identity and there are many aspects of this identity, so many in fact that focusing on only a few comprehensive aspects and going into depth on these aspects will provide a coherent view of what goes into making us who we are.
The best leadership accomplishment that demonstrates my potential to make significant contributions to the campus community and broader society is cheerleading. Cheerleading has made a huge impact on my life and has created many opportunities for me. It has paved the way for my high school career. Cheerleading provided me with opportunities to lead, volunteer, perform and show the athletic ability of our squad.
(Dogs are better than cats in almost every way.)(Claim) They are better than cats because they can be used as a service dog. They can be comforting companions for adults or elderly that feel lonely.

There are dogs able to sniff out cancer cells, ones who can sense changes in the blood sugar levels of there masters and family members . The talents of these special animals are matched by those of tens of thousands of remarkable canines — dogs trained to sense disease and seizures, to assist the physically and emotionally disabled, and to provide comfort, affection, and therapy to their human companions.
Discuss a leadership experience you have had in any area of your life - school, work, athletics, family, church, community, etc. How and why did you become a leader in this area? How did this experience influence your goals?
As a kid, I fell in love with the idea of getting a puppy for Christmas. Wrapped in a small box with a bow on top sitting under the tree just like the movies and tv shows I had seen. I can remember making a Christmas list of all the things I wanted that year, and every year the same thing that I wanted had said “puppy” with it underlined so that my mother knew which was my favorite on the list. Every year no surprise, I didn’t find a dog. I never understood why I never received one. When the kids at school talked about the few dogs they had at home made me so jealous, but I hoped that one day it would be me to have my own best friend at home.
It is hard for me to choose a personal best leadership experience. Many of these opportunities occurred in my various soccer teams. Often I was just a player, I had heart, but mostly played to win and keep everyone’s spirits up. The higher levels of soccer I played, the more passionate I became about the game. A time in particular that sticks out to me would have to be my sophomore year of high school. This was my second year playing for the Cartersville High school varsity team. I was still young and in comparison to all the other players quite small. I rode out the season playing a more and more as it went on, and learning the style of play I was supposed to be able to lead the team to play when I became an upperclassman. The game in particular was against St. Pius X in the State playoffs. I was clocking in some playing time and getting into the game. This was the season, I just knew it, that we could win the state championship. The first goal was scored against us and my teammate’s heads dropped, but I was still into it. I yelled and tried to keep morale up, but only to some avail. Some of the guys kept their heads down and accepted their fates, but some came back with renewed passion to go out with a bang. We made crisp passes and worked together making it more difficult for Pius to dictate the game. Unfortunately, St.
The process for deciding on a product was easy. I simply thought to myself, why not volunteer so that it could go on my resume and then also can count as an grade for my capstone. My capstone product is pretty simple. I volunteer at the St.Louis County Animal Care and Control, when ever I have the free time. So far I spent 12 hours there. It will be super easy for me to get 8 more hours. I don’t do much there which sucks because i’m about to get my vet assistant certification in a few months, which means I know way more about animals then probably the other volunteers do. A typical day volunteering at the animal shelter is I park my truck, sign in, and grab my name tag (now I don’t have one since I lost it and too scared to ask for another one).
“Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach” (1 Timothy 3:2). The most effective leadership I have incurred was during a difficult transition in my life. Moving to college and not knowing what I was in for or how I would meet anyone was a scary concept, but the leadership of a few girls in the dorm next door helped me succeed. I truly believe I made it through my first year of college because of the Bible study I was a part of my first year. Their leadership gave me the confidence I needed to make it through the most trivial year of my college experience.
Being a leader in almost any given situation has been an innate quality that I have possessed for as long as I can remember. I have always found myself nominating myself for leadership positions. My most recent and fulfilling leadership position was in my eleventh and twelfth grade school years when I held the position of Drum Major for Purnell Swett High School’s Marching Rams. Being in this position meant that I had to give up the spotlight of performance, turn my back to the crowd, and lead my fellow band members on and off of the field of competition, high school football games, and community parades. Over the course of these two years, I have learned many defining qualities about myself and have learned how to incorporate these newly learned and innate qualities into my everyday life.
When I was nine, I really liked dogs my interest grew and I started taking other dogs out for walks. No matter how big they were they listened because they were happy to always go with me. After months of playing with dogs I started losing the attention of mine. She was 14 with eyes as brown as milk chocolate and fur as white as snow, since she was older she never came out or wanted to run. Leaving her behind was probably the worst decision of my life.
Since I was six I always wanted a dog. I'd always ask my dad if we could get a dog, but I was too young to have a responsibility that big. I had to show my dad responsibility like cleaning my room, watering the lawn and getting better grades at school. After a whole year of showing responsibility I asked him if I could get a dog for my birthday and he said yes. I started to look up pictures of dogs on the internet and came across a dog that had his skin so wrinkly it made me love him.
