The 105 students in our University Leadership Program are all amazing! They have been learning through our monthly leadership trainings about servant leadership. Then they impliment what they learn and practice their leadership skills through their Community Impact Projects.
When asked at our February leadership training to define servant leadership, how that applies to her life now, and her future career, Coco said: "Servant leadership is all about sacrificing yourself to serve others. There is no bigger satisfaction than helping others. Servant leadership is when I give to others what has been given to me, whether it’s a skill or a service. Now, I share knowledge with young girls about their sexuality, because I have come to realize that ignorance is the first enemy of girls. I encourage them to talk to their sisters to spread knowledge so that we can all have a bright future. As a doctor, helping people is what I am committed to."
