Scholarship / Tell me how you meet the requirements of leadership [5]
Leadership ,this simple word has deep,profound meanings and responsibilities.I have been faced many projects and missions as a leader.Team work cannot be smooth without a proper leadership.My very first leadership was one of university projects in my first year.It was surveying and copying benchmark from Mandalay hill to our university.We walked about 25 miles while carrying survey tools and other stuffs.
It was on a very sunny day and I still remember that the temperature on that day was extremely high.All the members were really upset of carrying stuffs and walking under the hot sun.It was a hard situation for me to collect their mind and motivate them.Optimism is a leader must have skill.I tried to be optimistic and lead them to that situation of positivity.Small jokes,collaboration with them,sharing positive vision on the situation and emphasizing our actions lead us to our goal.My team reached the university in time under my lead.I considered leadership is not ordering,it is responsibilities, collaboration,applying strategies and the most important fact is that understanding people's mind.I got a point from this project,we cannot make people follow us by force.We are gonna show them what we can do for the team,how can we lead them and how can we participate as a leader in team.
I also volunteered at a poor child educating program.There are many kinds of leadership,so we should not be stubborn about the methods.As a teacher in this program I lead not only children but also junior volunteers.It is very difficult to lead self orientation people .I tried to persuade them in many ways,balanced and improved relationship with them also.Discussion and negotiation became the indirect leadership here.I faced many arguments and disagreements.Leaders should not close their perspective on situation.I never consider only my opinions are right.I encouraged them to open to me and we always discussed about the issue we faced,changed the problems into possibilities.
After graduate,as a young leader in my work(I work as a site engineer),I lead many general labours in site.All of them are skillful worker and much more experience in constructive works than me.They all can do their duty well but they need to be managed and arranged the duties.That is my responsibilities absolutely.Because they are older than me,it is hard for them to treat me like a leader.I learned about civil engineering but the school didn't teach me to understand workers' mind.It was hard for me to influence them.I cannot collaborate with them,also cannot share their vision in managing the site because of education gap.But I tried to be a good listener for them.Always open and welcome their advices and it is useful mostly.In my opinion,being a leader is hard but it is harder to influence people.A leader cannot make pointing order only.He is going to show his actions and way himself enthusiastically.Understanding people mind first and plan the strategies which can suit with them. They will inspire our actions first and then they will follow our ideas.That's called true leadership and influencing.
