We made it into the student council! Leadership can be seen as a chain of embarrassing events and your reaction to them. And there were plenty this campaign: - Going class to class to pitch is nerve-wrecking - Students smirking at me(maybe I am that funny) - Literally stopping people in the corridor and them circling around me - Going public and facing the consequences in a public manner But "embarrassment is the cost to entry". I see the above processes as constructive for what I will do in life, because it amounts to over 1k cold approaches/calls. I honed my selling skills. And of course, you can only sell convincingly if you believe in the product. In this case, it was me. Looking ahead, I will represent students by listening to their problems and feedback, hoping to integrate the input into the Faculty of Science (BETA). This is where the actual leadership comes into play. SRVU Studentenbond is the association who backed me, together with our members: Sylke van Kempen, Bart Dylan Verkerk, Yannick, Berfin Baran, Noah Chan whose efforts did not go unnoticed. Same goes for the members of the previous board of FSR. Aziza Filal, Yusuf Ziya Yokus, Derk Beemer, @David Congratulations! Let's use our positions to make a difference in Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam). Let's see where this path leads us, what problems we encounter and the solutions we find.
