At the end of last school year I was put on my school's leadership team. Yesterday I made my faculty debut in this role. I went from barely saying a word and doodling in my notebook during meetings to facilitating one with half of our staff.
I have been so preoccupied with my group of students this year, that I really didn't even have a chance to worry or prepare for this until a few hours beforehand. I was a little nervous, because while a lot of the people I was presenting to are my good friends, there were a few outspoken people that could have been a tough audience. (Am I right, Eric?)
Thankfully it went well, which makes me feel less anxious about the meetings I'll have to run in the future!
You are definitely right about a possibly tough audience. You did great!
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you!!! You are meant to have a leadership role. Don't be nervous. Or if you are its okay - Because I and we have faith that you will do great! LOL (lots of love) Jayne
ReplyDeleteLook at how much you've achieved so 'early' in your career! remember when you wanted to go into marketing or something? ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think I was trying to avoid having everyone at my high school graduation party tell me I was just like my mom!!
