Bro. Cox shared 13 tips on leadership in your career. Please choose two of those tips and describe how you might apply those in your current role, then how you might apply them in your future roles.
Well, there were many tips I could easily find a way to apply them to my life, and in my position now, but I guess I will need to confirm one. :)
Prepare before opportunity knocks - I love this tip! In my current role, there have been many occasions where I am extremely grateful for the experiences I have had thus far in this organization to learn different leadership principles. I am able to consistently draw on them during stewardships and different interactions I have with my team members. I really want to be able to benefit those around me by continuing to seek opportunities to learn throughout my life. Most immediately, I think about applying this in terms of my upcoming mission. I really want to be able to serve well, and I'm excited to be teaching in English, where I can draw from my current experiences to do so.
Don't value security more than service - I want to be able to say yes to anything I am asked to do in the church, or for the individual. In my experience as a VP, I really want to be quick to help others, even if it means being willing to open up a little more than I would like. I definitely don't have complete financial security right now, but I am happy for it. In my future, I have committed myself on many occasions to never say no to a calling. I am willing to make it happen because I believe the blessings we can receive from callings will always help us to make things happen.
