How do you actively apply the WAGGGS leadership mindsets in your actions and decisions, and how will this enhance your effectiveness as a World Board Member?
The leadership skills I learnt at WAGGGS have inspired me to put them into practice in my own daily life and I will adapt my mindset to the World Board key objectives:
- I reflect deeply on every situation faced; this enables me to analyse it from a personal perspective, determine my exact position, and take the necessary action ;
- I remain focused on our Movement target that is every and any girl: decisions to make to create more opportunities for girls to thrive;
- I am able to listen actively and understand the evolving needs of our member organisations, contribute to mobilise resources to achieve set objectives taking into account our values;
- I have learnt to collaborate with others in a spirit of teamwork (understanding, respect, tolerance and valuing others’ strengths). I am therefore able to work with the Board towards our vision (Compass 2032);
- I am able to assess the impact of events on our communities and contribute to manage change for sustainability;
- The critical and creative mindset will inspire me to contribute significantly to the World Board strategy and helping to find effective solutions to address challenges;
- I know how to ask for help when necessary, as I recognise that I am not perfect, I don’t have all answers and I must allow each component of my environment to express itself and play its part for our common development.
