Blog 6 LPI

The result of my Leadership Performance Inventory did not show surprising things to me because it had been based on my personal characteristics, which provided by StrengthQuest and other situations. However, my lowest principles in the result was new to me a little bit.

My highest principles are inspire a shared vision and challenge the process. They are exactly what I pursue in  my personal leadership plans. Especially, challenging principle is my philosophy. I believe that people can grow through the challenges, so I would prioritize to encourage members to challenges when I am working with group.

On the other hand, my lowest is model the way. It is reasonable because I prefer to challenge the process rather than just to follow the examples and steps. Thus, I might not want to make members to follow my examples---I would like to encourage them to perform their ability as much as they can. Therefore, I would prefer challenges rather than following and setting success ways in my team working. 

5th Post Random Act of Kindness

This assignment is my biggest worry for last two weeks because I do not have any ideas about random act of kindness. Eventually, I decide to do make some sticky notes to put in my dorm's bath room.
I am so pleased to live my floor because I came here as an exchange student, so I worried so much and felt nervous when I came here. However, my floor mates are really nice, and they talked me when I met them at the hall. I also appreciate their patients because I cannot either speak or listen English, but they try to talk with me.
When I was thinking about this assignment, these gratitude feelings came to my mind, and I thought I would like to be closer with them because I would go back my country after the semester.
Then, I just chose the way to encourage people with some good words and lovely decorations.
Also, I just put the sentence, "Say "Hi!" to Floormates" because I feel awkward sometimes when I go to the crowded silent bathroom in the morning. Though it is full of people, they do not talk.
When I put the staffs on the wall, one of my floor mates came there, and she praised me and my work. I was so glad because she agrees my feeling in the morning silent bathroom.
Through the assignment, I just feel something positive. It is really great because I was stressed out for midterms recently. Moreover, I noticed that it was part of my short-term leadership plan; make others positive. I had thought encouragement could have been done through face-to-face communication, but I could do it in such like a way, which was putting messages in the common place.
