Polished Reflective Report

So far, I have altered how meetings are conducted from last year so that the student administration has more control of communicating ideas to the members. Later in the year, I plan to incorporate additional volunteer opportunities and I want to have more group conversations with the members to hear their ideas and try to merge those ideas into positive changes that can be made. This leadership opportunity is starkly different from that of coordinating a 5k. Being the president of NHS has given me additional exposure to public speaking skills, decision making skills, proper ways to conduct meetings, and ways to present myself professionally. Despite their differences, these leadership opportunities have helped me advance myself in my journey to accomplish my goals. The skills I gained and refined from these opportunities will undoubtedly assist me when trying to procure grants, build connections, and become a research team leader.

This essay will detail a critical reflection of two key learning experiences that I encountered during my team observed structured professional encounter (TOSPE). Originally designed by Harden and Gleeson (1979), TOSPE takes the form of a mock multi-disciplinary team meeting. As a result, it allows healthcare students to work collaboratively as a multi-disciplinary team- developing non-technical skills and cultural competence.

My own unique leadership experiences have shaped me over the years. Peer leadership and the Chick-fil-a Leadership Academy have offered me a wide variety of unique leadership experiences. I have learned so much from organizing charitable events, to teaching social skills to autistic and other special needs middle-schoolers and the ABCs and 123s to kindergartners. As a role as Varsity lacrosse captain allows me to mentor and share my experiences with other players. Last year, my advice helped a player decide not to quit the team.

As an introvert, I never believed that leadership would be my cup of tea. Quiet, observant, soft-spoken. Those are not the traits of a leader...or so I thought. Then, I journeyed to Europe for 20 days with People to People to become a Student Ambassador. Meeting a Parliament member in England and representing The United States of America to a group of German students opened my eyes to the world of leadership and showed me how capable of leading I truly was. Entering my sophomore year of high school, I was selected to be a National Honor Society Member, the Vice President of the Beta Club, and a member of the Tri-M Music Honor Society. While all of the leadership positions I’ve experienced have been extraordinary and eye opening, the most significant

Being a leader is not considered a job or position. Becoming a leader is not a talent, job or position. Although, leadership can be rewarding and difficult at the same time. In today’s society, “the kind of leadership necessary to move social movements forward is very different from the type of leadership required in a military setting, especially on the battlefield. A more sharpened focus on leadership processes versus individual leader traits and behaviors deepens our understanding of the complexities and interactive nature of leadership” (Komives, Lucas and McMahon 2013, 46). My goal is to understand how to face the complexities in life as a leader to communities, universities, organizations, the workplace and the world. As a leader,

My roles in Healthy Campus gave me the confidence to go even further a take on leadership positions on campus. Not only was I was elected to an undergraduate student senate positon, but I was also voted in as the top senator for the College of Architecture Arts, and Humanities. I also succeeded in the classroom and achieved a spot on the Dean’s List for the first time in my academic career. Due to my leadership abilities and academic achievements, I was selected for two coveted public speaking roles. The first was at the Clemson Law Enforcement Summit, a gathering of local law enforcement officials to discuss better enforcement strategies for underage drinking and community policing. The second was at the Clemson University Student Affairs banquet, which recognizes outstanding student and administrative

A leader takes diligent time in considering the ability to adhere to other people’s interests and presents their followers with a positive mindset. This summer, I accepted an invitation to participate in the Dale Carnegie Young Adult Leadership Program. Attendees of this program learned several skills that can be applied to future experiences, especially on how to become an effective leader. Everyday, the attendees acted as leaders by accomplishing various tasks that forced them to reach out of their comfort zones. We acted as leaders by leading group

For the entirety of my high school career, I have been a student in the Leadership Center for the Sciences and Engineering (LCSE) held at Norview High School. Being enrolled in this specialty program has strengthened and pushed me academically, as a leader, with public speaking, and as a service worker. Specifically, LCSE has developed my leadership skills and allowed me to become a more service-oriented leader. In the first year of the program, students take Leadership Foundations where the basics of leadership and the history of great leaders are taught. Then, in Advanced Leadership students model leadership skills by hosting holiday gatherings, being counselors for the LCSE Summer Orientation Camp, and completing 200 volunteering hours.

As I completed the UNSW Professional Development Program , I was invited to apply for a pilot project called ‘NSW Global Scope’ offered by StudyNSW NSW Department of Premier & Cabinet and Sydney-based education services and technology start-up, Intersective during Semester 1 2016.

It has been 3 weeks since my last weekly reflection so I have had a lot of time to get some great work done. I have: made videos, Designed an Apple TV mount for the schools classrooms walls, cleaned up websites for teachers, written an app review, worked on a class project called Digital literacy and finally I have been working on my ILE. (individual learning endeavor)

Throughout my high school career I have encountered the chance to experience the position of being a leader for my peers. I have pursued leadership skills by being an officer in HOSA for three years, leading community service events for NHS, and taking charge on running school events in Key Club. I have obtained valuable leadership skills throughout my high school career, and encouraged the club members to take charge and develop leadership skills to help them in the future.

Purple is also an institutional colour of Newsround that is why it is included. The singular female presenter is seen in a full body shot.

I gave myself an extra point in this section because I feel I had collaborated with other members well. I am able to approach them and ask for help and some would ask me to help them in return. I feel like I am a part of a team now than I was a couple of weeks ago. A nurse at the unit who does not to me before is now starting to ask me to help her do stuffs, putting SCD on the patient’s leg for her. Some nurses asked me to help them adjusting the belt on the transducer or checking vital signs. If am not sure where to locate things, I would ask one of the nurses at the station. When I asked my preceptor questions, like over on Mag pt, OBSCU, or over their recommendations on what to use for my NCLEX, some nurses would add their feedback. I think

My day at MUN consisted of helping organize the event. At the beginning of the day I helped out by handing out event brochure to every student and teachers. After that if the teacher weren’t sure where their room was located, I had to help the guide to the classroom they needed to be at. As soon, as everybody was in their class rooming debating, some of the conference service helpers had to be in each classroom to be a page. Which I was one of them, my goal was to pass the notes around for the high and middle school students. At the middle of the day of the event I and other students had to set up the food for the students and teachers, by the end of the day I had to type up resolutions that the student came up with.
