Diana Patten was a very informative and exciting speaker. For one she taught me a lot about the career services office that I did not previously know. I look forward to using their resources that are available in order to progress in my career. The activity that she did for us was very interesting and involved a great deal of trust and when you have a leadership role it is important to have trust in your peers. Her power point made many good points on what being a leader is and is not. She also pointed out how many different types of leaders there are and that was a new perspective that I had not looked at ever before. Going through high school I always thought that a leader meant that you had to have a higher position but it does not mean that at all and she made this very clear in her speech.
