Why you should apply to be a Leadership Consultant!

While I'm more of a newbie at this whole consulting thing there are a few lessons I have learned during my months on the road.  I think every Alpha Delta Pi woman should apply even if it's been a fleeting thought once upon a time.  Just do it and take the chance by applying.  

Here are some reasons why you should apply:

10. Applying for the position is great life experience outside of Alpha Delta Pi realm.
9. You get to know the District Team on a whole different (and most of the time) better level than as a collegian.
8. You meet ALL the sisters all the time and love every minute
7. You learn how to pack two suitcases right under the 50 lbs mark every time (and now you're a pro at going through TSA)
6. Alpha Delta Pi may mean a lot to you now but during this position I have learned how much this organization has touched our sisters across the nation.  I've lived and learned from our open motto: "We live for each other" and I've found this to be a binding factor between all sisters.  
5. When else are you going to be able to travel like this?
4. You get to people watch in the airport
3. New adventures
2.  More importantly, new challenges around every corner
1.  Hello dream job!

Now, I'm not going to lie and say it's the easiest or even the most exciting job in the entire world.  Sometimes you just want to sleep without setting an alarm or get a pedicure at your own free will.  It can be hard to be around women with whom you share a sisterhood but to not be known outside of your Leadership Consultant title.  Regardless of the difficulties, this is the most rewarding, challenging, incredible, life-changing, and empowering job I could have ever hoped to have right after graduation.  I have grown as a leader, as a sister, and as a woman from my interactions with others while on the road.  This job has helped solidify my personal values and to learn to rely on others in my time of struggle and need.  

I am blessed to have been chosen to serve as a 2013-2014 Leadership Consultant and thank my lucky stars every day!!!
