Have you been elected to any position in school, organizations, associations, etc.? Yesterday, I attended Parents and Teachers Association (PTA) at my kids school. I attended 2 meetings, 1st at my eldest (a 5th grader) and 2nd at my 2nd's (a 1st grader). Those meetings are for the Homeroom PTA. And guess what? I was elected Treasurer at my 5th grader and President at my 1st grader. I was so flattered, I don't even know the ones who voted for me. I really don't want to accept it but it was a responsibility that was entrusted to me. I guess, I will be staying at their school a lot of times from now on. Just this morning, I was at a meeting for my youngest (Kinder) and I was elected President again? LOL. Then after that, I went to my 2 kids again to attend General PTA (this time for the whole school) and was elected Secretary. Whew, I don't know how will I divide my time for this tasks. I don't know what they see in me that make them nominate me and vote for me.
How about you? Have you been elected before? What do you think are the leadership qualities that people see in you that made them vote or pick you for that position?

Hi subha12, In my own opinion, everyone has leadership qualities. But some wasn't given a chance to show or practice them. Happy posting.

Wow looks like a grand slam my friend Dhangskihappy. You really had it with you, even if one has all the quality of a good leader and no one will vote for them then its useless. Its a good thing your kid's school have those associations, you'll have the avenue to air things that would be beneficial for both parties. My kid's school don't have anysad. Good luck and more power to you.

Yup my dear friend ferdzNK, It was a grandslam for me this year. It will be a tough job but I promised them that I'll do my best.

Hello dhangski, I've been an active officers in more than 5 organizations when I was in College and thinking now, I don't know how I was able to manage my time and be active in all..But, I did it..I know people can sense your capabilities and dedication, the way maybe you introduce yourself, they were able to find out that you have the skills to become the leader..It will be a tough and busy job but I know you can do it!


myLot reputation of 93/100. dhangski (1893)   ranked 175 out of 30,392 in life  7 months ago

You're right. It will be a tough job for me. So that means less mylot for me. HUHUHU. Thanks for the encouragement.

i cannot imagine how they do that to you. that would be a very hectic schedule for you in the future. and your time here will get so little... that is one reason that my wife and i usually don't attend the PTA meetings, the elections. i don't really know what other people found in us that they usually give their trust in such organizations...

Well congratulations! Thats a good indication that you are really a wowan with intelligence and charm. happy

Me? I remember the highest position I got when I was still in School was only "PRINCE CHARMING" hehe. No I also became vice president of a religious organization when I was in college though it was only a small group. I was elected also as Circulation Manager in our department club (Biophilic Club) but I did not really functioned as one for I was focusing on my studies more.

Now that I am a parent already, I didn't have the chance to attend to my kids school activities or PTA meeting, since even when I was in the Philippines I was also busy with my work. I hope soon...

Hello there sis, I've known you since you were 8 yrs. old and I know you really have those leadership qualities. I'm proud of you sis. I wasn't able or given a chance to be lead a group but I was always the muse. LOL. You are a strong woman and I know you can handle all those responsibilities that were given to you. More power. Cheers.

I've been elected/appointed to many leadership positions throughout my college career. I was appointed as the secretary of my fraternity my freshman year of college. I continued to hold that position and was elected as the Vice President of Communications my sophomore year.
My junior year was when I start to step things up. I was appointed co-academic chair, kitchen manager, a stage coordinator, song chair, a network administrator, and a member of our fraternity's standards board committee, as well as being elected as the secretary for the Asian Student Association, all in my junior year.
Senior year was even bigger. I was elected as the Vice President of Member Development for my fraternity, elected to a second term as the secretary for the Asian Student Association, and was elected as the trumpet section leader for the band. At the end of senior year I was a founding member for the Professional Asian Society of Engineers and Scientists, and was elected as the first President for that organization. I was also elected as the President of the Band. I was elected as the Assistant Vice President of the Judicial Board for the Interfraternity Council.
Didn't think I could top that, but in my super senior year (5th year) I was elected as the President of my fraternity, was still the President of the Band, still the President of the Professional Asian Society of Engineers and Scientists, and was elected as the Vice President of the Judicial Board for the Interfraternity Council. Whew.

So obviously I was pretty active. Actually, I could've held more positions as I ran for 5 positions for my college's student government, but unfortunately lost. IT actually doesn't take a whole lot to be a leader. You have to have confidence in what you do. You have to be organized and be able to manage your time well. You have to be able to delegate, which I believe is one of the most important qualities a leader needs to have. A leader should have to be able to do everyone's job, but be able to hold people accountable for making sure a job gets done. Getting along with your organization/team/group is a given, and being able to gain respect from your peers as well as giving respect to them is what you need too. That's really all you need I believe. All those people saying you need technical ability, etc. Well, everyone needs to be able to do that, otherwise the job wouldn't get done.

maybe the whole group of parents found your good quality and deserve to lead them. congrats for being one of a new officers in your school PTA . anyway, i been elected as class president before but i stop my service for the whole class due to my status in life. too busy with lot of things and many priority to be done.

qualities of a good leader are:

kind
understanding
patience
smart

few qualities that leader must have but some also not mention.
