6.Servant Leader

Our team focuses on servant leadership so needless to say we weren’t limited to options when discussing an act of it. One person that stood out to me was Coye. From what I got he was a quieter member of our 3rd year team. This trip he showed his personality and how he grew comfortable to be around our team. While Mads was planning the trip she had the other 3rd year team members give input or suggestions on what things our team might like to do. Coye came prepared and was helpful when suggesting things. I think he researched almost as much as Mads so we could all make the most of our trip. He was also one of the people that really wanted to go explore London on our layover. However he was super flexible and understanding when Mads told him we’d have to wait when we get there to see if that was a possibility and even looked up things for us to do while at Heathrow. During this trip I think Coye branched out more than most of us and hung out with everyone. Something I definitely admire because it was something I really struggled with this trip. He attempted to complete bingo which was a challenge some of us didn’t take as seriously. He would just keep saying, “ Oh well we’re not in Greece for long”. This attitude gave me the attitude to make the most out of the small moments and was definitely a good reminder to not worry. He never failed to be kind when the ladies who were selling flowers. When we all kept our heads down so we didn’t get conned he always made sure to support them. He also payed attention really well and if there was a group of the girls on their own he made sure to check in on them or go with them to make sure they were safe. Also can’t forget he was willing to go chase after anyone if they pickpocketed us!Read more
