Leadership

One thing that I feel like is a strength in my leadership qualities is my patience.  Teachers tell me all the time that they can't believe how much patience I have. 
One thing I need to work on is my innovation.  I want to be better at being able to be more creative and contributing new ideas to the teachers.
