What is integrity ?

Integrity means being truthful and having strong moral values. Leaders with integrity inspire trust and set a good example for their teams.

Example from my experience:

Talking back about my previous experiences in Teaching Practicum, in the first day of the training period I arranged a meeting with my MST and was honest with her. As I discussed with her the tasks and observations that was needed throughout my training period.

What is Empathy?

Empathy is the ability to understand and express the emotions of others. Thus, it creates a supportive environment where my family and friends feel valued and understood.

Example from my experience:

My experience took a place at my home, specifically with my family. If my parents or siblings go through a problem or a phase I set with them and give them the chance to talk freely and express their feelings without disturbance from my side, then comfort them.

What is Vision?

Vision means having a clear idea of what is wanted to be achieved and can be communicated with people to inspire them.

Example from my experience:

Personally, I have a vision of my own where I write down my goals and the things I want to achieve by every year, this will help me focus on achieving them, and work hard for them.

Some of my goals that I want to achieve:

1. Graduate from HCT with high GPA.

What is inspiration?

It is the ability to inspire and boost others, resulting in a pleasant and productive corporate atmosphere.

Example from my experience:

An example from my own experience is at the training period, the other trainees in the same school I was in seemed to have a difficulty planning for a lesson, what I did was I arranged a meeting for the students and explained the components of a lesson plan with the things needed to be applied into it. This gave them a boost of confidence and the motive to prepare a perfect lesson.

Personal leadership moto & its importance

# data[].attributes.body
My personal leadership Moto:

“Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.”(Carnegie, 1936)

Why its important?

This moto is important to me because it highlights a principle of a personal and professional growth, it discuss that even the idea of failure is not an end point but it is the beginning of the journey to success. Moreover, I encourage myself by this quote and see failure as an opportunity to learn and grow, and each failure builds a strong person and grows the desire to develop him/her self.

# data[].attributes.body
As for the thing I want to change instead of developing, I would say her idea of education and cultural heritage in shaping our identity and empowering future generation, I somewhat disagree because building a strong generation needs an inclusive approach that addresses many aspects of personal and societal development not only cultural heritage such as economic opportunities, technological proficiency, social and emotional development, and environmental awareness.
