Recommended: Integrity in academic work

To be the representative for North Dakota’s ASCLS would be of great honor. Over the course of my life I have always attempted to have a strong work ethic, be a trustworthy person, and to be reliable in everything I do. Up to this point, I feel like I have done an excellent job of being true to myself and feel like I have caused others to adopt a better way of living. Now that I am entering the laboratory profession, I feel like it’s time for me to step up and be more of a leader and to do this being a ASCLS representative would be a perfect start. This is since I feel like I am the best candidate to do so and fit the criteria needed to represent ASCLS. I believe the work ethic and determination I have acquired over my education and several years of work make me the most qualified to be …show more content…

Over my education, I have always strived to be the best I can at what I was studying. I have always taken the responsibility to study as much as I possibly can to surpass the standard I have set for myself and feel like I have done a good job at doing so. In contrast, I have always taken the responsibility if I do not do as well as I was expecting, or made a mistake at work. This trait of striving for excellence and taking the responsibility for mistakes is important for being the representative, since no one is perfect and will make mistakes but those who try to learn from them will progress the furthest. In addition to this, people tend to seem me as leader figure and have come to rely on me to make group decisions and even come to me if they have questions in the laboratory. This quality will be important since I will be

    The role of a leader is often inaccurately defined as an individual who is in a position to give orders. However, there are enormous differences in the attributes of an outstanding leader, and one of mediocrity. An outstanding leader, above all else, is a role model for their peers. In doing so, a leader of the highest caliber is trustworthy in both their peer’s trust for the leader as well as the leader’s trust of their peers. A leader must also display exceptional skill in communication which transcends speaking and, more importantly, includes listening and consideration to the ideas presented to them. Furthermore, a leader must be supportive of and willing to help their peers build their own strengths. The attributes listed above represent only a small subset of what makes an outstanding leader. Yet,

  • Personal Narrative: My High School Robotics Team

    295 Words  | 1 Pages

    Just this year, I was voted the Vice President of my high school Robotics team. Although it’s by far one of my proudest achievements, at first, I didn’t understand why I was given such an honor. I’ve been in my high school Robotics club since freshman year, I’ve attended every single meeting, fundraiser, and event, and I’m an avid lover of programming and robotics. Yet, with all of this, I didn’t think I would be an official for my Robotics club. This was mainly due to the fact that I possess all of the qualities that I thought a leader shouldn’t have. I’m kind of a shy guy, I’m not very confident in myself, and I’m usually pretty quiet. Most people believe that great leaders are supposed to be self-assured, outgoing, and expressive. I’m none

    As written in the book Student Leadership by Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser, he outlines many ways on how a student should lead their peers. Lautzenheiser believes that a student leader shouldn’t be chosen for how talented, popular, or how well their academic standing is. Instead the student leader should be chosen for how well they interact with others and how they are considerate of their peers. Being dedicated is a quality that every leader should obtain, but being cooperative and giving are the two levels of maturity that a student should be at before receiving a leadership position.

    Although there are many outstanding, albeit necessary qualities of a good leader, it is the leader’s beliefs in which greatness is given its first breath, fostered by action, and spread throughout the institution. A great leader believes in encouraging, not destroying; in setting the precedence instead of yielding to prominence ; in collaboration, not division; in giving, not taking; and in having high standards and volunteering to be the first of many to be held to them. A great leader does not take advantage of the people being lead, but instead, creates an advantage for the people by giving them the opportunities to lead. Only when people take ownership of an institution will passion be cultivated, action be taken, and greatness be achieved.
