    Leadership is the ability to set direction and motivate a group to reach their goals. A great leader respects, trusts, and listens to everyone around them.

    Leadership is being there for the people that you are supposed to lead. It does not put you above your club members or teammates; it only means that when they need help you are there for them.

    All the underclassmen are kind of like my little siblings! It makes me feel more responsible and I want to be a good role model for them.
