Since I believed that leadership is not a position or a title, I started to believe that I am a future leader who can help the community and the world.
One of the most important traits that distinguishes me from others and let me considering myself an effective leader is motivating the team I worked with, at my current job we are a team consists of 13 employee divided into 3 sub teams and a team leader, in our team I always tend to be the motivation agent. I spread the vitality and positive energy every day and especially when dealing with stressful and tension situations. One day I suggested to do the team weekly meeting somewhere out of the office and have fun just to break out the boring routine of normal work days.
Decision making and problem solving have been always a big part of my personality. At the project beginning at my previous job, the contractor site engineer surprised by an error in the structural drawings, I immediately adjusted it after compared it with the non-structural drawings just to make sure my solution doesn't make us fall in another bigger problem. My current job is such a good practice for approaching problems in non-traditional ways which are usually happened at the field visits, and need case by case intellectual solutions. During follow-up visits on the rehabilitation and constructions works, I found out that some works weren't done exactly as in the work agreement, but sometime I accept it after a little adjustment after making sure it met our NGO's standards and regulations. By this step I am saving time and keep the work going well.
I believe that communication is a trait we can't live without, I am a master at the communication skills, I have been always the active and energetic member in the team due to my effective participation in our frequently meetings, sharing new ideas or new work methods that will help us achieving more and better via presentations, and of course passing my messages via emails just to officially document work information.
Efficiency and saving time is also an awesome trait in my personality. One day while I was preparing the special cases report,
I felt that the form of the report has too many duplicate information also its style is hard to easily understand, so I put it as an objective in my work development plan. After I have worked on it for almost 1 month, I share it with my team, when they were glad for this saving time change. Moreover, I always fix any database errors found while working on it, giving a helping hand to all of my team members when they in need and stand beside them when I feel they are going through difficult circumstances.
With Chevening I will become a future leader and my leadership skills will develop through the relations I will build with the most outstanding minds, leaders, influencers and decision makers.
