Chevening essay on leadership - Servant leadership essay [6]
I just have a couple of bullet corrections to make in your essay, if they go well with you.
When having worked for ABC... ------ The time marker 'when' is not fit for this context again having used 'having.' It is much better to say: Having worked for ABC...
On February 2016...------ Please, note that the word 'on' is used in this context to show time when the date is day and month-specific ( as in: On the 12th August, 2016) but the moment the date does not specify the day and the month, then you can use 'in' or 'by' (as in: In February/By February 2016...).
'And I believe that my personal traits and working experience ...'------ I think there is something wrong in the semantic string of words together here. Chevening prides itself in fanning to flame the leadership department of people who have demonstrated certain leadership traits and discharge of leadership responsibilities at some points in their career and are willing to go a step further in developing their leadership space by influencing and networking (as one of the ways) with the renowned Chevening Alumni network in over 160 countries to make specific developmental impacts in your local community (own country) so as to further strengthen the cord of partnership between your country and the UK.
Remember this is Chevening, a globally prestigious body with various applicants and scholars, telling them that you believe your personal traits and working experience
will make you to be able to become a future leader will be too weak an expression to qualify you for a selection. What it simply means is that you really have not functioned in some leadership capacities that could convince you that indeed, you are a leader, and a potential great leader. It means all what you have said is subject to a doubt concerning your leadership experience, just going by that expression. That might not convince them that you deserve their scholarship.
If there is one thing that must be given utmost attention in life-changing and largely contested applications like this, it is DICTION------ CAREFUL CHOICE OF WORDS, CAREFUL COMBINATION OF WORDS.
'In the next two month, our likes on Facebook have increased double, even fourth time higher than previous posts'------ Please, note these corrections: 'two months,' 'have increased OR doubled' (not increased double---- it is repetition) and 'four times.'
'Chevening scholarship will be a golden chance for me to be more motivated and inspired ...'------ You must not just tell them that what will motivate you are 'Chevening leaders and influencers' without also showing that you are self-motivated by your powerful and influencing qualities, traits, potential and passion to help your community (country) develop and grow more.
