I have been called the “mom” of the friend group, the “mother hen” that is always looking out for her chicks, prepped with bandaids, hand sanitizer, and an extra pencil for loaning. Link Crew took that characteristic I have always had and bolted, floating high into the sky like the helium balloon whose ribbon easily slipped through a tiny toddler’s fist.
Through Link Crew training, I learned that you don’t have to be extroverted to be a great leader. Sometimes the best leaders are those who speak less and listen more, the ones who observe before they act, the ones who lead by example as well as instruction. Leading wide-eyed freshmen around an entirely new building and watching their expressions transform from nervousness and anxiety to excitement
