Leadership Talk

Racheal Balogun shared with the students on how they can lead themselves and help others.

She said, "the young ones among us are often called ‘Leaders of Tomorrow’. While that is true, another truth is if they do not start leading from today they may never get the chance to lead tomorrow."

Leadership is influencing, motivating, guiding and directing people towards achieving a common goal. However, to successfully lead people, you must have led yourself. This brings me to say there are two types of leadership: Self Leadership and People Leadership.

Self Leadership is knowing who you are, your values and purpose and then pushing and motivating yourself everyday to achieve that purpose. Self leadership precedes People leadership because it builds capacity in a person to effectively lead others. You must have experienced some private victories with yourself before leading people to achieving success.

We all need leadership because it helps us have good lives. Self leadership makes us adequately prepared when opportunities come our way. Let’s not forget that with leadership we achieve success.

Whoa! It's a year already. This time last year we were pregnant with this dream. The dream to ensure that Secondary School Students live up to their potential.
