My leadership experience

Prompt
Describe an instance where you had to be a leader in your community.What did you learn about yourself and your capacity to create change?.

Please help me with my writing I am a Spanish native speaker. And do you think I answered all questions? tell me all the criticisms

When I was elected president of the student center it was a challenge, first because of the trust the entire student body gave me and second because I would be the principal of an entire school.

I had the opportunity to participate in several camps where I met other student leaders from all over Paraguay with whom I could share ideas and learn from them. In addition, we all had something in common, the desire to improve the country.

My experience in the student center was magnificent, I learned to work in a team, to delegate tasks, I realized that each one of us is different and that there are all kinds of personalities; also, It helped myself notoriously in my interpersonal skills and in my formation as a leader.

There I realized the reality in which we live, what needs to be done in our country, whether in education or in other aspects, I realized that change is first in ourselves and then we become multiplying agents, sharing teachings and supporting each other. From the moment on, I dedicated myself to participate in as many courses as possible and to take advantage of the opportunities presented to me.

But, just as I had good experiences in the student center, I was also part of other organizations in which I did not have such pleasant experienced formed me as a person.

We had two great activities: the end-of-year trip and our prom party, It was not easy to lead the group, I stumbled but I went ahead and I can say with joy that we achieved the goal.

As in any other group, there were discomforts and disagreements on some sides towards others, But I was able to handle difficult situations effectively with calm and tolerance

I think I have the capacity to create change because I already take it to action, for example with a group called "Voluntad Bogadense" we are collecting toys for poor children as a gift from The three kings. I love to make others happy through my actions, encourage yourselves to look for a spark of hope where all the darkness seems to absorb you, use the light you always have to help.

The phrase "Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want donde because he wants to do it" It reminds me of the encouragement our peers need to achieve their goals.

It's incredible how words help in the personal improvement of each one, we must value our collaborators and listen to their opinions because a good leader does not government in its team but motivates and accompanies it.

PROMPT:

Why would you be a great participant in the Global UGRAD Program?

Since I was a little girl I had interest and predisposition to help others, my parents are people who inculcated me good values and then I developed them.

I started being president of my seventh grade course (2012) and continued like this until I became president of the student center, representing an entire school helped me grow as a person and change my thoughts, realize how much we have to improve in the country and the enthusiasm of belonging to that percentage of people who fight for a better country starting with themselves Then I was a member of the board of education, my community`s special culture commission, and finally a volunteer at AFS and Bogado Verde.

This year I was selected for the first youth leadership academy in Itapua and also the first at the national level belonging to the state, where I am representing my city.

During these years I developed interpersonal skills, competencies,attitudes, which allow me to be a responsible and ethical citizen to help others, acquiring skills that will last over time.

I claim to be a potential candidate because of my leadership background and the commitment I have to my community to become a multiplier agent.

I am also someone who adapts to the circumstances, loves working with others,learning something new every day, and improving as a person. I know that I am not perfect and that makes me human, I made mistakes like everyone else but I can proudly say that I learned from them and that thanks to that I am who I am nowadays : honest, good and with a strong spirit of service.

Being a student of the GLOBAL UGRAD PROGRAM will give me the opportunity to train professionally in my chosen career which is International Trade and also to help others through my experience, giving talks and workshops on citizen participation and youth action, thus achieving that more people are oriented to action and take the initiative to lead in order to get better development results.

I will also make every effort to represent my country with dignity and take advantage of all the tools available for my improvement.
I believe in my capacities as well as I believe that together we can achieve change, that's why wherever I go I will contribute a little of myself to achive something bigger.
