Through the combination of the learning from Leadership Experience course and actual practice in workplace, I am pretty confident that I will reach my leadership goals in the next few years. My goals will not only bring positive side to other team members, but also help me reach better self-development to become a successful and trustworthy leader.

Last but not least, I would like to take this great opportunity to express my sincere thankfulness to all my friends and colleagues who offered generous support in my daily life and workplace. There is no denying that I can not grow up smoothly to become a stronger, better myself without their understanding and help. Just like the lyrics in See You Again, "We've come a long way from where we began, oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again." Even though my journey with Leadership Experience course has over, my life journey is still going on. I will certainly take full advantage from this course, keep all the essential leadership skills in mind and remind myself all the time. Moreover, I am very much looking forward to seeing personal improvement in the next three and five years. See you again, my lovely friends! See you again, a better me!

Time went by so fast, we have already finished all the classes for Leadership Experience course last week. We had many in-class discussions and group presentations; these activities effectively made me get involved in the academic study environment. Overall, this course helped me obtain lots of incredible ideas as well as inspired my leadership potential throughout the entire course.

There are two things I personally like the most from my leaders, which are appreciation and participation. Therefore, if I am the leader, I will certainly treat people the way I would want to be treated.
First of all, in order to show my positive side to the others as a leader, I should have strong confidence and believe in myself while dealing with any challenges, such as stress or conflicts. In addition, I will do my best to offer enough resources and support to my team members. Appreciate and praise their contributions to the team, as well as encourage team members to build up creativity for new ideas and opinions.
Secondly, as I mentioned earlier that I really like the appreciation and participation from my leaders. It is true that it can not be achieved without the inspiration from the leaders. So if I am the leader, I will certainly offer sufficient tools and resources to inspire my team members think wisely and creatively. My current leader Preston, the Front Office Manager at Delta Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort told me in our fireside conversation that seeing team and others succeed is the most rewarding thing as a leader. He really sets an amazing example of how the exemplary leader looks like.
I fully aware that leadership journey is a long-term process as it takes patience and perseverance, so I will treat every single challenge as the opportunity to grow up and enrich myself to achieve the leadership goals.

I would describe my leadership vision as a combination of acceptance and innovation. In other words, listen to the others with respect and open mind, as well as being confident and trust myself all the time. The two key learnings I wrote for Assignment 1 are honesty and competence. It is true that people always want their leaders to be reliable and trustworthy. However, being a good leader does not mean to make all the decisions on their own, is also based on the ideas through inspiring and empowering the team. Daft (2018) pointed out the same idea in course literature that "Every leader's style is based to some extent on attitudes about human nature in general - ideas and feeling about what motivated people, whether people are basically honest and trustworthy, and the extent to which people can grow and change" (p. 135).

My first leadership goal is showing positive side to other people all the time. I truly understand the importance of relationship building as a leader, it is not only about daily communication with team members, but also focus on emotional connection with each individual. And that is why I set up this goal.
My second leadership goal will be pay more attention to inspiring other people. I strongly agree with the perspective Daft (2018) demonstrated in course literature that "Leaders use their understanding of emotions to inspire change and lead people toward something better, to build teamwork and collaboration, and to resolve conflicts that inevitably arise" (p. 172). This is the reason I set inspiring people as the second goal.
