Spotlight Saturday - Megan Hennings, UNC Charlotte Class of 2015 graduate and former Student Alumni Ambassador.
“Leadership means helping your group and others accomplish a greater goal. It doesn’t always necessarily mean having a position or title, but being an active part of the team.” Introducing Megan Hennings, a Human of Leadership.
“I would definitely tell incoming freshmen to get involved on campus in a club or organization that they’re interested in as soon as possible. It’s the perfect way to get connected to other students and start developing skills outside of the classroom.” During Hennings four years at UNC Charlotte she has accomplished a vast amount through her academic success and on campus participation. Hennings was involved in both Leadership Fellows and LeaderShape for the Center for Leadership Development. She held positions as an Orientation Counselor, a Marketing Coordinator for New Student Services, a Development Assistant for the Latin American Coalition and traveled to South Korea as a part of the Model United Nations team for the Harvard WorldMUN Conference.
“The Center for Leadership Development has played a major role in my college career and professional growth. Through Leadership Fellows and LeaderShape, I learned so much about myself and gained the skills to be a leader that will stay with me far past college.” Hennings’ extensive experience and involvement on campus while mastering the art of academic success illustrates her leadership qualities. She utilized the CLD as a foundation in order to build her success both on and off campus.
