Why I should be in LLC

About me
Previous leadership positions
What could I offer to LLC and our school?
Why do I want to be part of LLC?
I really love being involved in New Tech and the community, I love getting out and helping others and the school. Last year I said I wanted to get out of my comfort zone, and I really think that I did; it’s not as hard or awkward for me to be a leader when I need to be. I still sometimes get nervous when trying to lead others I don’t know, or people that are older than me, and I think next year, especially being Mardi Gras year, I can get out of that next level of my comfort zone. I want to join LLC to give me more opportunities to be a leader not just in New Tech, but the community.
Ability to delegate
My ability to delegate is really important, because when everyone has about the same amount of work, and they do what they are best at, there is no chance of failing. This will really help LLC an New Tech, because it makes everyone feel equal to each other.
Commitment
The commitment to finish anything you do is probably the best quality for anyone to have. I will be committed to finishing any task of mine, and making sure it gets done right. Being committed to LLC and the school is so helpful because I can always be relied on to finish the job.
Enthusiasm
My Greatest Weakness
A weakness of mine is letting others take advantage of me. I hate being super bossy or seeming unfair, which sometimes results in group members not doing their fair share of work, or doing it to the best of their capability. Lately I’ve been working on that, because I know its not fair if I get hurt because of others, but its still a huge weakness of mine.
