Leadership Strengths

In this activity, i figured out that my 5 leadership strengths were Adaptability, Input, Harmony, belief, and Intellection. Two of them were in the domain "Relationship", two others were in the domain "Strategic Thinking", and one was under "Executing."

strength 1-
Adaptability really represented me because it talked about living in the moment, and being okay when things change. I am very aware that some things are inevitable and not everything lasts forever. This theme described me very well and showed how calm i am in times of stress.

strength 2-
Input was spot on when talking about the want for travel and finding new things. But it was slightly off when it described the need to collect information and objects. i am a very care free person and i don't usually keep many things, unless they are important.

strength 3-
Harmony represented my ability to relate to others, but it was the farthest from who i am. if an argument can be made, i will be there and make it. i am a very stubborn person, and i believe in standing up for what i believe in and taking control in situations that i feel are unnecessary or absurd.

strength 4-
Belief was spot on about the majority of my life. I am a firm believer, and it controls my entire life. It drives my motives and standards, and gives me secure morals. i believe in God and know that he is in control. I have a strong conscious and almost always know what is wrong and when not to do things.

strength 5-
Intellection was very spot on. It described me as an introverted person, and wanting my time alone. which is very true. i love to be alone and think on my own. any time i can, i will let my thoughts consume me and let them be my only companion.

After learning or reviewing all of these things about myself in the workshop, i found talking about our themes was the most valuable thing we did on friday. it really brought out peoples thoughts and gave everyone a chance to understand how unique yet similar we all are.

A few "aha!" moments i had were when we figured out that what you were involved in (web, or video) really did impact who you were and how you worked with others.

I will probably approach teams and groups roughly the same as i did before, because although i learned a lot of new things, i also already knew a majority of them about myself. i will always approach a group and based on the people, i will either be my introverted self, or i will take control and be a leader.
