One thing that I really enjoyed about this trip was getting to know Dawson better. Before the trip, I'd been led to believe that Dawson is the party frat boy type, which maybe he is a little, but I got to know a different Dawson. He can be a lot, but he is kind, funny, and a good guy. I'm glad I got my new nickname too😉 Czytaj więcej

Greek Leader (Q4)
12 maja 2023, Grecja ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Question 4: Regarding the Greek leader that you researched, what did you learn while we were in Greece that helped you understand him or her in more depth?

Agnodice of Athens is know as the first midwife and female doctor. She was a strong woman and a strong leader. Some scholars think Agnodice was just a story, that she was not a real person. After traveling to Greece and being in a lot of different parts of Athens, I did not see or hear anything in regards to Agnodice specifically. I still believe Agnodice could have been a real person. There were many places in Athens (and Greece in general) we did not get to go, so it is possible that there is information on her somewhere we did not get to visit.
I was really worried that I would not find ANYTHING suitable for this question while we were on the trip. While walking in Athens one evening we walked past the place in the photo. When I originally saw "Med Homecare Athens" I thought it was some kind of home healthcare agency which fits well with Agnodice's story since she was a midwife and doctor's back then traveled to their patients. As I am writing this I looked at the photo again. I believe my original thought was incorrect and that this is in fact a store for in home healthcare items and devices. I still think this place relates to Agnodice well, whether it is what I originally thought or what I think now. I think a place like this would really intrigue Agnodice and perhaps a place she would find useful. Czytaj więcej

Those of us in the class needed pictures for this assignment, so we all took a lot. Some took more than others, so we started taking pictures of others taking pictures.

Contextual Factor 2 (Q8)
14 maja 2023, Grecja ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Question 8: AGAIN-In regard to the contextual factors, talk about one (which of course is not the one you just talked about) and what you learned while we were in Greece that helped you understand that factor in more depth?

Another contextual factor I learned a lot about was the Greek's laid back culture and tendency to take their time. In the book we read in preparation for our trip it talked a lot about the fact that Greeks are often late for things. As someone who is rarely late, this was something that surprised me while preparing for the trip. I thought it was probably not as common as the book made it out to be, however, we encountered it quite a bit. Our ferry back to Athens to head home was running late. Both days we worked with the refugees they came later than the start time. Fotis Vazeos was late for dinner. I learned that Greece's lack of punctuality isn't because they don't care or because they are lazy, but rather the opposite. In Greece people care about relationships. They take their time to have conversations with each other and enjoy life. This is why there are hardly any fast food type places and why most places don't really do food to-go. Greeks would rather take their time and sit and enjoy their coffee or food than be on the go 24-7 like we are so used to in the United States. I honestly really like this way of doing things. I wish we had a little more time to just sit back, take it all in, and enjoy the little parts of life. Czytaj więcej

EEK! Scratchy Hike!

One morning, we hiked down to a beautiful beach by the house we stayed at! The hike was a little harder than we anticipated, but the end result was so worth it even though we all got a little scratched up! Czytaj więcej

When we went on the boat tour to Agistri, Mal and I ventured off on our own. We went and found a lake and then another little cove. My favorite part was the conversations I had with her during our adventure! Czytaj więcej

Mom and Dad! (Q6)
15 maja 2023, Aegean Sea ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Question 6: Describe one act of a servant leader that you have witnessed in Greece.

A display of amazing servant leadership that I saw during the trip came from two people: Cierra and Dalton! Cierra and Dalton displayed incredible servant leadership both independently and together! First, they came to Wichita to pick me up the day before we left for the trip and opened their home to me. They let me stay the night before leaving and the night we returned from Greece. Throughout the entire trip they were always checking in on me and the rest of the team. As much as we joke about them being "mom and dad" they really are the parents of the leadership team in a lot of ways. They always make sure everyone is accounted for and that everyone is feeling valued. Dalton really stepped up to the task of driving both to and from Dallas! It was something that was sprung on him that he wasn't planning on, but he did it without a second thought and with a great attitude. Cierra encountered several bumps with food due to her celiac, but didn't let this put a damper on her experience or anyone else's. She also took time to find aloe vera gel for everyone who was sunburned. She then also put aloe on my back for me. Cierra just took care of others when they needed her to. I am so grateful to know Dalton and Cierra and to call them my friends. I don't know what I would do without these two! Czytaj więcej

Adventure Is Out There! (Q9)
17 maja 2023, Grecja ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Question 9: Kouzes and Posner suggest exemplary leaders should "treat every job as an adventure." What have you learned about how to do this on this trip?

As Russel from the movie Up! says, "adventure is out there!" I, personally, am not a very "go with the flow" person. I like to know what the plan is and specific details of said plan. This trip taught me how to better adapt to changes, partially because I watched those around me do it so well! One person that I saw really take on adventure and change was Trey! He was always exploring, no matter where we were. Also, watching Martin treat his accident as an adventure taught me to be more open. He didn't let a (what turned out to be broken) foot injury stop him from having a good time on the rest of the trip. Also, watching Maddie's ability to adapt and have a positive and upbeat attitude the majority of the trip was incredible. I look up to Maddie a lot. I think part of what makes adventure adventure, is the ability to adapt and change during the process. Being able to take this skill into the workplace and other more serious settings is very important. Projects and assignments do not always go as planned, so being able to realize this, accept it, and move forward with a different plan is a very important ability to have no matter your profession.

Midnight Layover

This was by far the worst part of the trip. I say this partially because the trip was over and mostly because I barely slept and was very bored.

My Growth (Q10)
19 maja 2023, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ 🌧 14 °C
Question 10: What kind of influence did this trip have on you as a leader?

Wow. This was the trip of a lifetime. All I kept thinking was "We're in GREECE!" There was so much lead up to this trip it just felt crazy once we were actually there. I grew as a person in a lot of different ways on this trip. I learned how to say things in a new language! I got to experience a lot of firsts on this trip as well. I grew as a leader as well. During this trip there were moments where we had a lot of choice and I think a past version of me would just be quiet and go with whatever someone else decided. On the trip though, these situations came up and I did voice my opinion. I didn't insist on one way or the other, but I did let my voice be heard. I also, asked others in the group what they wanted to do to. I think this was an example of enabling others to act. I tried to make sure everyone on the trip felt valued and included because I think this is one of the most important parts of being a leader. I also developed judgment about safety. In Athens there were big crowds and all types of people. I decided to go off on my own at one point, but I made sure I was listening to my surroundings and kept other groups of my teammates within sight. I think the most valuable lesson I learned though, was that you don't have to be loud to be a leader! Czytaj więcej
