Personal Narrative: My Experience As A Leo Club Officer
At the beginning of my freshmen year, I joined Leo Club as a way for me to meet other people as well as help out within my community. Leo Club made such a significant impact on my life just from one year as it allowed me to befriend other students that I never would have imagined I would one day call my closest friends. After realizing how the club had a significant role in the shaping of my character, I wanted to have an even bigger role in the club and help others the way the club had for me. At the end of my freshmen year I became a club officer which meant more responsibilities would come with the position. At our community service events, the members of the club look towards the other officers and myself for directions on what they have

    Last summer, I endeavored a life changing experience. American Legion Buckeye Boys State is a leadership program. It is the best Boys State program in the nation. On top of this, it is among the top programs for leadership, growth, and is a meeting of the greatest minds of Ohio, and by proxy, of the nation. But it’s so much more than that. From Day One, the minute you step off the bus, it instantly becomes an incredible experience. Everyone, people who have never even met before, are shaking everyone else’s hands, introducing themselves, and campaigning for positions before anyone has even dropped their luggage off. It was breathtaking, truly, and it made me realize that I too had to step up. Naturally, I did just that. I started meeting people,…

    I was very reserved when I first started high school, but after attending a leadership training conference in 2011, my personality, my confidence, and my overall life outlook changed for the better. Ever since, I have returned to that conference each summer as a counselor in order to help others find their voices as well. At around the same time, I began working at the Sweet Spot Bake Shoppe, helping customers, preparing products for sale, taking specialty orders, and assisting in regular tasks. After about three years at the bakery, I headed up to Connecticut for college as an Honors student, undecided in terms of a major. It entailed me taking many classes across multiple departments, getting involved in several clubs, and attending diverse lectures, but after freshman year, I realized my true interests lie in business, specifically management information systems.…

    During high school, I committed most of my free time to my NJROTC unit and my 4-H club. In both of these organizations, community service, leadership, citizenship, and initiative are indispensable values that are essential to their functioning, and I like to think I have learned to embody these traits. In 4-H, I have attended, and then went on to teach, numerous leadership and group trainings. In NJROTC, I attended the Area 5 Leadership Academy, graduated as the Second Honor Cadet of the 2014 Academy, and was selected to be an Aide for the 2015 Academy. I held, or currently hold, leadership positions in both organizations and I feel I set a good example for my peers and subordinates. Through any task, I am enthusiastic about my job and…

    Hello, I’m Caroline Woodle and I feel that I would be a propitious member of National Honor Society. This organization does an incredible job of recognizing students who are leaders in their communities. In my opinion, the most influential part of a person is their character. Activities such as competitive dance, FFA, and youth leadership events continuously reinforce my values of honesty and hardwork. Giving to and inspiring others are two of the most important parts of my life. Numerous Midwest mission trips revealed to me the responsibility and desire I have to serve others. During these work trips, my youth group and I met with dozens of people who had devastating stories of natural disasters that had completely destroyed their homes and…

    From there, I hope to study to be accepted into medical school and specialize in pediatrics. When preparing for medical school, the advice one hears are to become a well-rounded student. Through my DECA experiences I have been able to develop leadership skills that will help me thrive in my future. Over the three years I have been involved, I have stepped out my comfort zone and made a difference in my local DECA chapter, community, and my future. Now taking the responsibility of being a DECA officer, as the chapter president, has allowed me to continue to grow and develop my leadership, communication, and social skills. Working with the Milan DECA Chapter members has proven how difficult and enjoyable being a leader is. At times leading so many events can be stressful; however, the completion of the events pushes me further. In order to reach the goal of becoming ‘well-rounded’, I used DECA skills to organize my time to join other extracurriculars within my community. Along with DECA, I participate in 4-H which is a non-profit organization in counties all across the nation that prepares youth to make a positive impact on their communities. Furthermore, I lead my 4-H club in a Relay For Life team through the American Cancer Society. Additionally, I am a dedicated musician, drum major, and the first Milan High School Flute Choir Director. I am an active participant in the peer education program at Milan High School. I am so thankful for the opportunities to be a leader within my class, school, community, county, and…

    Many parents were unwilling to participate, but I was persistent in making sure that they were up to date and kept in the loop. I even instructed the secretary to send out more emails, and, as a committee, the officers sought to personally reach out to all club members to make sure that they were meeting the monthly requirements and participating in all club sponsored events. Over the course of a month, I decided to change some policies and I instituted a social media page in order to make the club more accessible to everyone. It turns out, that more and more students began to interact with us more and things were finally getting back on track. I, and the rest of the officer corps, had decided that working with students instead of telling them exactly what to do, was the best approach to dealing with high school students of all abilities. This took awhile for me to learn, but it was worth it; many students live busy lives and I had to learn how we could work with them in order to achieve our goals. I wanted to make sure that everyone had the opportunity to pursue his or her own interest while still meeting the requirements of the club that they signed up…

    I continued to build on this by becoming a student ambassador, where I spend either 4 hours or even the entire night with a prospective student, showing them the campus and all of the glorious opportunities here. As a result of this personal growth, I was privileged to be selected as one of the inaugural shift leaders at Alumni Gym. I am now one of the point-men for any questions or concerns relating to the gym. By becoming an RA I hope to continue this personal growth, becoming more and more well-versed and meeting more and more people on Union’s campus. Additionally, I will be gaining critical skills that I believe will enable me to be successful in life particularly being a leader around students that are either my age or not much older or younger. I anticipate many issues, especially relating to having to be the smart person when my peers are being unintelligent and ensuring the safety of everyone else in my building and around campus. However, in order to grow, one must be faced with challenges, and it is how that individual confronts those challenges that determine how that individual will grow. The leadership opportunity that the RA position provides not only will provide me with immense growth, but will allow me to…

    The moment that signified my transfer into adulthood happened just recently. Since 8th grade, I have been a part of truly incredible academic-service organization called Beta Club. Beta Club has taught me the values of being a leader by serving others, and it is from this “servant's” mentality that has made me a better person. Moreover, it has given me countless leadership options as I served as my middle school Beta’s president. Then, I was elected as my high school’s chapter president, and this is where my moment of transition truly begins. Each year, the state Beta Club hosts a convention in Greensboro, where you can compete in events or run for state office. The state convention was like no other event I had participated in, and ever since I attended my first…

    These organizations helped with the school to raise money and understand the quality of working together. My shyness all went away at this time, I no longer had a reason to be held back.The more organizations I joined, the more I grew as a person. In the beginning of my junior year i was inducted to National Honor Society, became colorguard captain and historian officer for band. Becoming colorguard captain meant more than being a simple member. The day i learned about myself having an interdependence nature was during the day of our first band competition of the year. Having to wake up early and do an SAT exam was simple. The fact that i had to do the SAT then drive an hour after the exam was different. I could've chosen to not go. Everyone already knew their performance.Yet i needed to take my responsibility as a leader and be physically there for my part. Servant leadership is a component of being part of a true community. This includes everyone being part of a family. I didn't realize how limited my definition of “family” was. My definition is now more than flesh and bone; it is my very own…
