Before spring break we where doing an assignment to improve our leadership skills. We basically asked ourselves the question, does every good leader need a mentor? This led us to thinking about our mentors and role models and who we look up to, after brainstorming for a while we where introduced an assignment. The assignment was called “who’s at my table?” We basically where assigned a table to design, with five people we look up to as role models. It could be anything from you baby sister and mom to a country singer! I ended up choosing Audrey Hepburn, Bethany Hamilton, Muhammad Ali, Joan of arc and Michelle Obama.

I then took those people and wrote up a little paragraph of why I chose them and what made them different from the rest. I decided to add a little word of there strengths that I particularly looked up to. Here are the headshots of the people i chose and the words next to them:

As you can tell from the picture Michelle Obama is at the top representing the “CEO” of everybody. I look up to her as a mentor in my leader ship skill, bit just because her husband was the president of the United States but also because she is a strong leader for her kids and all the people around the world that look up to her.

As I said before for each person we had to write about why we chose them and a little bit about them, here’s what I wrote: Finally, here is the finished project of the table (it’s  not really a table, because I thought I would represent it in a different way)

I used eraser (an app) to erase the backgrounds behind him and I used comic life to put it all together. Once I finished all of that I tagged everybody using Photo2text. I had a lot of fun with this project because it was very personalized and you where able to express what you truly feel about your mentor and role models. Hope you enjoyed everything!
