Outside of your family and friends, who do you look up to as a leader and why? -
answers -outside of my friends and family, someone that i view as a good leader is ms
swanson because shes not only a good teacher, but also takes the extra time out of her
busy work life to be the yearbook advisor and i think she also holds all of the traits that a
good leader entails such as being understanding, empathetic, a good communicator,
and enthusiastic
From your family and friends, who do you view as a leader and why? - answers -out of
my family and friends, i think that i would view one of my friends, his name is nathan as
a leader because i remember watching him last year when he was vice president for
key club at temple city and he always rose up to the occasion and took on all issues
very efficiently, was very organized, super enthusiastic, and he always did his best to
reach out and connect with not only his board but also his club members.

your job to the fullest as secretary? - answers -i think before deciding to try out for
secretary, i knew that this job would be pretty rigorous and obviously i'll always do my
best and put my best efforts forward to not only complete my job, but also do it
effectively, but i also know that some things are inevitable and sometimes emergencies
happen but in that case, i would first try to do as much of the work as i can, but if i still
need help, i would probably have to ask for help from other officers but i would definitely
try to make that super minimal because i know that everyone else also has their own
jobs and priorities
If you get the other leadership positions that you're going for, what do you think you'll
gain from them? - answers -well the other leadership position that i was thinking about
going for is asb secretary and because i'm also trying out for leo club secretary, i think
that something i could gain from that is possibly more efficient ways to do my job
