Leadership Identity: Relationship Nurturer and Developer

Creating relationships has always been a significant part of my life. The process of establishing a relationship is one that I enjoy participating in. I personally find getting to know others and building connections with them fascinating and fun. My current leadership roles have all dealt with developing relationships and nurturing them into being meaningful ones. For instance, I make meaningful relationships with my residents on my floor as well as with the other RAs on my staff. It is vital for me to care and protect these relationships that I have because it helps me thrive as a person. Additionally, as a Meeting Space Assistant I have developed professional relationships with the management team as well as my co-workers. Moreover, as a Gameday Recruiting Intern it was my job to build a relationship with the potential high school recruits the Husky Football coaches were looking at. Overall, relationships are an important aspect of my life and they have helped enhance my social skills and my approachability skills which I think are essential when it comes to networking with people and working with different types of people.
