Aspirations

Part three of this book was about being a leader and what you aspire to be like.  This section talked about how as a leader you’re not just aiming to achieve what you want personally but rather what the group wants to achieve as a whole.  It’s really important to have the groups best interest at heart.  A quote I got this from in the book was when the author says “Leadership isn't about selling your vision; it's about articulating the people's vision." Thanks to the New England Greek Leadership Summit at Bryant University this past weekend I learned from John Holloway about how values and passion determine your leadership skills. John was an amazing key note speaker and he taught us a lot about being a leader and made me away of utilizing my strengths and setting up my goals and positive assests I can contribute to the group. Leaders have credibility and are aware of what’s going on in the chapter as well as whats going on with themselves. Good leaders are able to keep their personal feelings separated from work so that they can positively affect the chapter. In the future I hope I can positively impact my chapter the same way our leaders now have been.
