Taking leadership roles in everyday situations, both in and out of the classroom, can help students prepare for challenges in college and build skills that lead to better jobs after graduation. The document discusses how developing leadership, such as through public speaking classes or volunteering, makes college a smoother path to success, and that students who form strong relationships with professors and take initiative tend to do well both in college and their careers.

1. In this week of reading I learned the taking leadership role in everyday life situation can help prepare
you for the entire obstacle of college. I establish that the people that succeed in college and in life after
college usually have a leadership theme or surround themselves around people with leadership traits.
In high school I found myself only taking a leadership role when I was on the basketball court. But, when
it came to the classroom I was the shiest of them all. I mean I would turn in my all homework and class
assignment but nothing extra no speeches, no volunteering and no organizing study group.
In college the student who are in front class and making virtuous relationship with the professor
are the students who are getting the better jobs after college. In the chapter of the book it shows me
there are different ways to take leadership role without being verbal. Leadership can be developed by
my class section. So this can help me by taking classes that help me develop a leadership role like public
speaking or community development. In this chapter I learned that leadership development can make
college a much easier path to success.
