Event: Region 4 Student
Leadership Conference 2002 (RSLC 2002)
Date: April 5, 2002 April 7,
2002
Location: University of Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico
The
title of the conference is "Know your Role: It's time to perform".
The title is calling to all of us, the future leaders, to know when it's
our turn to lead the way in any situation and to give our best so that the
project, any project in life, is a success. It also implies the value of
teamwork. Not everyone can be a leader in every situation, but all of us can be
a part of a team. We are already part of the team of Hispanic Engineers working
for a better future. So it's up to us to perform, maybe even better, when we
are part of a team and not necessarily in charge of it. The ability to adapt
our leadership skills and put them into action performing at our best in every
situation is what makes us great leaders.
