The following experiences led to development of skills in this area:
Courses
MAN 4720; Strategic Management; Spring 1997
One of the requirements for this class was to do a group project and develop
a Strategic Plan for a fictitious company. I was selected by my peers to be
the group leader. I coordinated the efforts of four other classmates,
planned weekly meetings and delegated assignments, and ensured completion of
the project in a timely manner. We received an "A" on our project
and the professor asked to use our report as a sample for future classes.

In my work at the Auditor General's Office, I help with the preparation of
State Audit reports. My supervisors have provided me with consistent
feedback about my leadership qualities, including being an active part of
staff meetings and generating new ideas.
FSU Orientation Leader; 6/97-7/98
After a competitive application process, I was selected to be an orientation
leader for incoming FSU students and their parents. I led campus tours,
helped students get registered for classes, and served as a role model for
new freshman.
Service / Volunteer Work
Genesis (Leadership Development Program); Group Facilitator; 8/99-12/99
I led a small group devoted to strengthening leadership skills. I developed
discussion topics and performed role plays with the group members.
