Leadership and introducing Adam Deguire
Today I wish to discuss leadership and how it applies to my internship. Leadership is a traight that can only be mastered by the individual seeking the characteristic. I believe that anyone can gain leadership qualities, althought it comes easier for some. At the U.S. House of Representatives, it is clear who leads as Representatives and who follows. I believe Congressman Salmon leads with integrity and that traight trickes down through the staff.
They provide me with couple opportunities to lead. first, I lead the tours at the Capitol. I have full authority to take my constituents anywhere I want to go within the tour rules. Leading in this way allows me the opportunity to get a feel for what the guests want and what interests them. This taught me that when you lead to benefit you, others are nothing more than your consequence, but when you lead to help people, others can be blessed by your actions.
Everyone staff member of Rep. Salmon is a leader. Adam, Olivia, Jenell, Greg, Kristine, Lorissa, Lliam, and Jonathan all possess individual leadership skills that are specific to them. This is why Rep. Salmon is gaining respect and attention so quickly. It is because he staff is so dilligent and they lead by example.
I believe that Adam Deguire, Chief of Staff, is a great leader. Leaders aren't always appreciated because they are the ones that make the tough decisions, but Adam is one who takes this seriously. I have appreciated his leadership qualities since I have been in D.C.
