There are many great leader has inspired me. They have contributed to improve environment, economy, and social life. I am still working on to be on of them. I have applied and learned leadership skills in plenty of occasions.
Since I was a student, I joined to a number of organizations and basketball teams. I joined to student journalism organisation at the University. For several times, I led a team to collect information and data from society regarding to the current news that we wanted to publish in our newspaper. We always succeeded to provide sufficient data and deep analysis to support the current issues. In basketball team, I was appointed as captain for several times. I led my team to win several basketball championships. Sometimes, my team did not always win the game. We suffered lost for several times, and at the time, I was responsible to raise the spirit of my teammate. Nowadays, I join to non profit organization to help people to improve their English. At this organization, I lead a team to provide free class every Saturday. We are responsible to invite great speaker to discuss many topics. In many occasions, I also become the speaker at the class. Mostly, I discuss the traits of successful people.

At first, I faced an obstacle in which senior employees did not want to follow my instruction. I kept maintaining good relationship and communication with them and showed them that I had capability to lead the team. They eventually built good team work under my supervision, and my team succeeded to achieve plenty of goals. In 2013, my team had booked the highest loan expansion and profit in a year. In 2014, my team was able to keep zero non performing loans. Due to my achievement in leading a team, in 2015, I was one of the 15 people who selected to join the most prestigious training program, i.e. Global Banking Officer training program at my company. The aim of this training program is to enhance the capability of future leader in order to be able to manage all business of banks which consist of loan, international trade finance and treasury.
