SUMMARY
What sets me apart from others in my MOS is my desire to inspire, lead and motivate
soldiers so that they get the best from the National Guard and the Guard gets the best
from them. I have never been in a unit that I have not received a company or Battalion
coin from. Not only do I lead by example, I make sure that every single NCO and soldier
alike completely understands what is expected of them. I have always been a fair and
just leader. Knowing what is expected of an NCO and letting them do their job is a big
issue with me. I can’t be everywhere at once, but what I can do is instill in my NCO’s
my desire to see them succeed by giving them everything they need to be successful. I
get a great job satisfaction from helping others to believe in themselves and set them up
for success. There is a great leader in every soldier that I have met in the Guard, it is up
to the leaders to get them to show it. Everyone is different and I believe that I am gifted
with my people and leadership skills. I am able to style-flex with all of the soldiers in a
way that it encourages them to believe in what they are doing and to want to do a good
job for themselves and the team. Not only am I a knowledgeable resource for others, but
my resourcefulness is what will ensure the job gets done no matter what. I have always
been a safety conscience person and ensure that others are being, working and behaving
in a safe manner. No one is more professional than I, I am a non-commissioned officer, a
leader of soldiers. Now I am ready to step up to the next level.
