Brain Rules 7 & 8-Student Leaders perspective

Leadership is when you show others how to do something. I have been a leader many times. I enjoy being a leader much more than following in others footsteps. The biggest and most rememberable leadership experience is my Eagle Scout Project. This project required me to lead a few dozen of my fellow scouts and friends through a project that I designed. This project really required me to step up and take charge. It was an amazing learning experience and once it was over it was one of the biggest accomplishments of my life. I have also held many other leadership positions in scouts. I have lead my troop on many occasions. My senior year of high school I was the vice president of my schools men's service club. This was a much harder task than I ever imagined it would be but I loved it. I lead with a bunch of my friends and we really made the club take off. It was a great experience. I am very interested in leadership opportunities at USC. I hope to lead at least one of the clubs that I am in now by my junior year. Leadership is a great way to get your voice heard and do things that you want. It is also a great way  to stand out on graduate school and job applications.
