My weaknesses as a leader discussed:
1) Lack of experience: To put it simply, I haven't been in many situations professionally that required me to be a leader. In my experience, people don't like being led by someone with half their experience or age. you can use a comma here, instead of a period.So I hope to gain much more experience in a leadership role in the future to help ameliorate this weakness.
2) Lack of knowledge: Another sad truth, my education level is extremely low.too much information. Write more professionally, this makes the reader pity and awkward In terms of knowledge in general, let alone leadership I perceive myself as being behind my peers. nigga if you think you're dumb they will tooI believe that the one of my main weaknesses as a leader is knowledge, so I've been taking avid notes. Even in just the first week together, the things I learned from professor Yazdani and the text book are already filling in the blanks in my knowledge and understanding of leadership.nice man, it's good to see improvement Even though I may never have enough knowledge, even if I can never learn enough about leadership.this sentence made no sense, what? I hope that someday I can turn my lack of knowledge into a strength, by attaining and utilizing knowledge.
3) Lack of confidence: My whole life I've been told that I will be an inevitable failure, I've been constantly reminded of what I can't do.wow dude, remove this. This is highly personal and very unprofessional. My self esteem is still in the process of recovering from my formative years and many humbling experiences. Slowly I've been learning to focus on positivity, to focus on what I CAN do. I will work through this someday, hopefully someday soon, but as it stands a lack of confidence is definitely a big weakness for me. telling them you have confidence issues is a red flag, since they have to keep tabs on oyu, and are worried that your lack of self-confidence can turn into a meltdown later on.
Summary: This list was originally a lot longer, but after thinking about it I realized that all those weaknesses can be categorized under these three BIG flaws. I don't believe anyone would want to follow a leader with a lack of experience, knowledge and/or confidence. It's important to identify these flaws and work on them before moving forward, because I think these flaws are blatantly obvious. Like Yazdani said "Leadership is a life long journey" if I want to be a great leader, I will need to develop myself.
Strengths as a leader discussed:
1) Good at listening: I've always been good at listening and now that I'm getting educated and have been learning from my professors and text books I'm getting even better at it. It helps that I have a natural fascination and interest in human beings interest in human beings? Very creepy. Rephrase..
2) Good at communicating: I can explain what I want and how I feel clearly and concisely, I've always been great at making friends because of this. I believe that poor communication is the cause of most social problems, so I've taken it upon myself to learn as much about it as I can. I find communication fascinating, even though I'm introverted. introverted? Too much information, dude. Again, it makes me hesitant to hire you if you identify as introverted and unconfident. I don't want to hire a quiet guy.
3) Good at promoting teamwork: None of us are as good as all of us fucking awesome quote. Try phrasing as "I've always gone by the mantra that 'None of us are as good as all of us', and blah bhahl, because of this I believe in getting my team or co-workers invested and interested in the task at hand. Through my natural interest in people and learning about them I can identify their strengths, pool ideas and come up with a plan that the others can agree with. fucking excellent
Summary: I feel like these strengths are to my natural advantage towards leadership. I'm looking forward to learning more about listening, communication and people, because I am passionate about these things. In just the first week of classes alone I have already learned invaluable knowledge on these subjects, so I look forward to the future eagerly.
My personality type "Myers briggs": I think it's a good idea to discuss my personality type, since it can help explain my strengths.NO WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? DON'T, UNLESS YOU HAVE TO. YOU ARE GIVING TOO MUCH AWAY. YOU AREN'T TELLING THEM WHO YOU ARE, YOU'RE SELLING YOURSELF TO THEM. I HATE TO SAY THIS BUT YOU ARE A PRODUCT TO THEM, SO BE AS APPEALING AS POSSIBLE
INFJ: Introversion, intuition, feeling and judgement. Only one percent of the population have the INFJ personality type, making it the rarest. While this personality type has come with a plethora of unique challenges to overcome, it also grants me many useful traits while interacting with people. Even though the INFJ is introverted the INFJ is commonly mistaken as an extrovert, as people with this personality type are extremely social. I find it easy to make social connections with people, I see helping others as my purpose in life, I have strong intuition that I've learned to trust. These traits are because of my personality type. I think dedicating my life to helping others is a noble pursuit, so long as I remember that I need time alone to rest and recharge.
Closing: Truth be told, I don't feel that I know enough about myself or leadership to make a proper analysis of myself as a leader. But I intend to develop myself, so that I can be a great leader in the future and leadership will be critical if I intend to help others. This is why I embrace the opportunity to learn more about it whenever I get the chance, I look forward to my classes to come.
Rate my paper, I've got some reading to do.
please remove the myers briggs thing. It's very concerning when people open up too much too suddenly, because as a reader I think that you expect me to memorize this, and that I'll prefer you know and whatever. Na man, give them what they want, and package everything you write like an advertisement, with some of your creativity on the side. Don't tell them your weaknesses unless:
A- you can make it seem like a strength
b- they explicitly ask you.
