The Leadership Takeover event was very insightful and helped me realize how important it is to not only be a leader but also what it takes to be an efficient and effective leader. I was able to identify techniques needed to transform my leadership skills, define what it means to be a leader, as well as gain great advice from experienced professors and students. It also influenced me to continue my leadership growth and has inspired me to take on more leadership roles.
I would recommend this event to future peer mentors because there is a lot to learn about yourself in terms of accomplishing personal goals, as well as how to be a better peer mentor through improved leadership skills. Also, the skills you learn at the event can be applied in any position or situation and will benefit you throughout your life.
