Everyone has story. Strong leaders use their stories to inspire and engage others. In fact, leaders recognize the defining moments in their lives and communicate those lessons in words and actions. Everyone's life is filled with experiences – traumatic, frustrating, or exhilarating – that can be the source of valuable learning. Stories create real human connections by allowing others to get inside our minds and our lives. With their human protagonists, dramas, climaxes, they engage listeners in an emotional and intuitive level that is rarely touched by purely rational argument.Presenting your leadership story takes courage, but inevitably, someone will want to hear about who you are and the story behind what is important to you. Opportunities to share your story will surface frequently. It may be during a job interview; it may come from a counselor or family member during a conversation about your career and future; or it may be part of an early conversation you have with someone whom you are establishing a new relationship. Be prepared to take advantage of such opportunities.Using the attached Written Assignment Template, write your leadership story.
