My Leadership Style

Throughout the years of my youth I have had a lot of experiences that helped build my leadership skills. One of the main events that I took from was my Eagle Scout Project. The project was built around benefitting the community that I lived in. The types of leadership I used consisted of team building, day-by-day project organization, on site project execution, project payroll, and overall project management. These leadership skills were special to my specific project but could be utilized for future projects in my academic and career path.

During my pursuit to figure out my specific leadership style I decided to sit in during Sir Rudy Giuliani’s presentation. Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani covered several aspects of being a leader. These aspects being; setting strong goals, be an optimist, courage to take risks, relentlessly prepare, have a good team, and have solid communication. He discussed the importance of these aspects in comparison to his term as NYC Mayor and his leadership during the 9/11 terrorist attacks. I really enjoyed hearing from Rudy Giuliani and plan on utilizing the knowledge he shared for my future as a leader.

Based off my personal experiences and recent sit-ins with leadership professionals I have formulated my own leadership style and expertise. I believe that I am a strong leader when it comes to influencing and organizing a group of people. I first learned I held this skill when I motivated a group of individuals that I organized to help complete my Eagle Scout Project. The core motivation I used influenced the group to work efficiently cutting down the time that was needed to complete the project. I still use this style of leadership today and have come to enjoy the results it produces.
