Scholarship / Establishing network over the years had helped me to find valuable information and resources [2]
In a challenging field a well established Professional networks becomes a main tool to advance our career level , establishing this network over the years had helped me to find guidance , valuable information and resources.
I had established my first network group Through the university and graduation reunion events , Through this meetings I had knew lots of interior designers and architects in different career levels, my first time to reach for this connections was when I had my first freelance medical project I have struggled in some installation requirement on site ,I contacted one of the architect who I was introduced to on one of those reunions, he didn't just give me the information that I needed he kindly offered to visit my construction site to insure that I'm on the right path , since this cooperation we remained in touch and we exchanged lots of data and resources and eventually we worked together , also at the end of this project I made a new connection that I find very helpful whenever I have this kind of projects he is a medical engineer works for sirona a company which provide medical equipment and he also contacted me after to provide him with a construction worker.
In my previous work I was a part of a design office that participate in most of the design and furniture exhibitions , that helped me to make connections with other designers on the field and they provide me with catalogs and information updates that I find helpful in Furniture, fixtures, and equipment selections in various type of project
Also Due the economy changes I found that my connections to companies that provides architecture materials very essential, this connections IS established by approaching them personally in my freelance work and through architects in my current company , by their help we are able to know updates on materials prices which help us to determine our service budget and to make sure we buy them by the best price possible
I believe by being a part of Chevening community I will be able to grow my professional network which I'm planning to maintain through communicating with chevening alumni, that would expand my knowledge and support me to advance my career, and I feel confident that by this journey I will be able to help other designers who want to become a Chevening scholars.

@sofzah
i think your opening paragraph needs rewriting , also i think while you demonstrate how you established your network you didn't explain how this network benefits you in your work now and in the future , and in the end i think you should right about how your network skills will help you when you become a part of the Chevening community , good luck

thank you for your feedback i will work on it , would you think writing about some of the following point would help me to highlight my leadership skills ?
-In my previous company I was responsible to develop our architecture and furniture branding -planning and managing the design process and the execution
- In my freelance work and in my current company - I held meetings with the clients for presentations -and I'm responsible of hiring out source designer which I lead in the design process and maybe demonstrate projects example
-In medical projects the main struggle was the installation requirement for the medical equipment and I played a role of studying this recruitment and then to lead the construction site in order to fulfill this requirement

Scholarship / The most important time that shaped my professional leadership skills [5]
are we all product of our environment? Do we have nothing to do but surrender and fall under the pressure? These questions have a different answer from individual to another. under the same Circumstances and the same society problems, yes there are things that we do not have fully control over it. but the way we choose to interact with it despite of it heaviness is our choice, I have learned to engage with every struggle and to enhance my skills to overcome it. our struggles will shape us and will always be a part of who we are .we can choose to rise because of it and to inspire others to do so
2011 was a breakthrough for me it was my graduation year and The Egyptians revolution took place , I have been a part of a field works to raise awareness about human and political rights. in the process of preparation meetings till approaching people I felt passionate about what I believe in .we have learned to organize ourselves and our thoughts and to open discussions with others to present what we stand for and convincing them about the change we all could make
In my professional l life I started exploring my work journey, in my time in u-Elite office i made an impact that's made me responsible of many essential tasks , in some cases I held meeting with the clients , understood there requirement and translate it with my Colleagues in every stages of design, I believe that a leader should be initiative so I even got involved in tasks that wasn't my study area like branding, photography and publishing in a furniture magazine , being involved with various types of design expanded my knowledge
that allowed me to take a freelance projects and also to work with another construction company and some of this projects was a partnership, I believe that was the most important time that shaped my professional leadership skills. I had learned how to choose the right team from outsourced designer and to manage their work progress, we had worked in various project such as residential interior and furniture design communicating with furniture workshops, got involved also in medical projects mainly dental clinics which was challenging to meet all the installation requirements and the static areas together to create a functional design and also was challenging for me to manage unprepared construction workers to work in this kind of interior, I have encouraged other junior designers to join our projects, I learned how to lead , when to follow and how that can affect the design process .
I think the most important thing in a leader is to translate his /her believes system in their actions in both there personal and professional life , people may be touched by powerful phrases but you can only make great impact by acting according to them
