My favorite leadership quote is, “Leadership and learning
are indispensable to each other.” – John F. Kennedy
There are many important aspects of leadership, but one is
never finished learning, and it is impossible to be a good leader if you do not
know what you are doing. Leadership is a learning experience, and each time you
take any sort of leadership position you should grow from the experience.
This semester, I led a meeting between myself, one of my
group members, and our faculty advisor. Only half of our team was able to be
present at this particular meeting, and the goal of the meeting was to
determine whether our stage project was on track to be built to code. The
International Building Code uses a lot of jargon that makes it somewhat
difficult to understand without construction experience of some kind. Since the
other group member present has had less experience than me in this area, I took
charge of the meeting and ensured that all of the necessary topics outlined in
our plan were addressed. After extensive consultation of the faculty advisor’s
copy of the IBC regarding such topics as fire codes, we successfully concluded
that our stage was on track to be up to the standards set for the project.
