1. In your opinon, what are the most important behaviors (as defined in your student manual) in getting results with a project or problem? Explain why you have chosen those and use specific personal examples to add merit to your claim.
The two behaviors that stand out as most important in getting results to me are gains the support of others and decisiveness. Without the support of others you are going to have a very difficult time seeing results. A large part of leadership is working and interacting with others. Its been amazing to me to see the difference in a project when you do and don't have support. In BYUSA I have had experiences with the committees that do and don't support the project. When I have the backing and excitement of the committee on the project we are able to much far more successful. I have also been committees and lead committees that weren't able to make decisions- exercise decisiveness. Those committees have not been successful, often times the program doesn't even get completed. When a group has been decisive the results have clear and impact much deeper.
2. What are your personal strengths in getting results? How can you use them/ implement them?
I think one of my strengths in getting results is gaining the support of others. One of the very first things I do when working on a program is gather a committee. I love working with a group and collaborating and brainstorming. It's amazing what ideas can come about from a solid committee. When you get a good with excitement and a common vision the program will take off and the results are amazing. One thing that I think I can improve on is my decisiveness. I am usually pretty good about it in a committee meeting but it is when I am doing work on my own that decisions become drawn out and procratinated.
