reasons
why
you
should
run
for
a
student
leadership
position.
Now
is
the
time
to
begin
thinking
about
your
future:
Where
do
you
want
to
go?
Who
do
you
want
to
become?
Running
for
a
student
leadership
position
is
a
great
way
to
boost
your
resume
and
learn
valuable
life
lessons.
1.
You’ll
develop
leadership
skills.
As
a
student
leader
you
are
going
to
develop
innumerable
leadership
skills
including
conflict
resolution,
cultural
intelligence
and
professional
advancement.
These
leadership
skills
will
come
from
having
real-‐world
leadership
experience
with
a
small
nonprofit
and
as
a
representative
of
the
180,000
community
and
technical
college
students
in
Minnesota.
2.
You’ll
experience
working
on
a
team.
In
any
student
leadership
position
you
will
not
be
working
alone.
You
will
be
working
with
either
your
fellow
cabinet
members
or
your
fellow
Governing
Council
or
Platform
Committee
members.
As
with
working
on
any
team,
there
will
be
challenges
in
communication
and
work
style.
This
is
the
perfect
time
to
find
how
you
work
with
others
and
where
your
areas
for
improvement
might
be.
Plus
you
can
learn
more
about
the
strengths
you
already
bring
to
the
table.
Teamwork
does
not
have
to
be
challenging;
it
just
takes
practice.
Being
a
student
leader
is
the
perfect
time
to
find
how
you
work
on
a
team.
3.
You’ll
gain
valuable
soft
skills.
As
a
student
leader,
you
will
learn
valuable
soft
skills
while
gaining
real-‐world
leadership
experience.
Meetings
will
teach
you
communication
and
expectation
setting;
projects
will
teach
you
time
management
and
responsibility;
presentations
will
teach
you
public
speaking
and
organization.
These
are
only
a
few
of
the
many
soft
skills
that
are
required
to
be
successful
in
any
profession
that
you
will
gain
through
a
student
leadership
position.
4.
You’ll
network.
Not
only
will
you
have
the
chance
to
meet
hundreds
of
student
leaders
from
across
Minnesota,
you
will
also
have
the
chance
to
network
with
the
Minnesota
State
system
office,
legislators
and
their
staff,
and
other
student
advocacy
groups.
Make
the
most
out
of
your
chance
to
be
a
student
leader
and
network
with
as
many
people
as
you
can!
5.
You’ll
learn
about
yourself.
While
in
a
student
leadership
position
you
will
interact
with
many
different
types
of
people
and
situations.
You
will
learn
how
you
deal
with
conflict
and
situations
that
you
are
not
used
to.
As
a
student
leader,
you
will
also
learn
more
about
your
dreams
and
goals.
Where
do
you
want
to
go
in
life,
and
how
do
you
plan
on
getting
there?
Being
a
student
leader
is
a
great
way
to
learn
about
yourself
because
you
will
find
who
you
can
become
and
all
the
opportunities
that
are
available
to
you.
