Alicia Gomes-Figueira quick clicks assignment 11

After watching the quick clicks links I have learned so many things that would help with my final project. I am writing a paper on women leaders who ran for office throughout history and look at who they ran against, how the media portrayed and advertised these women leaders. This paper will connect to my mission and gaining leadership skills from women who have been in the leadership position and was successful and it will show that women can become leaders within their community, local, national and international just as well as men. One thing that I have learned was on quality writing standards. The tools they gave was (1) Subject line conveys a clear purpose, (2) Purpose is clear and upfront, (3) Lists in the form of bullets, (4) Good use of white space, (5) Emphasis using bold-faced font, (6) headings are informative. (7) Paragraphs and sentences are short. I find these tools to be helpful when I write my paper and will use it as a goal. Another link I found helpful and learned from was the “Be productive Habit: See-do-get”. The three things that they mentioned was (1) how we see the world, (2) Determines what we do, (3) which, in turn, determine the results we get. After looking at this one I noticed that in everything that we do, we always have our own thoughts about any situation. These links will help me in writing my paper and making my project a success. In being a leader, knowing how to write a proposal, a grant or a speech is very helpful and having an open mind on issues that we face is a good quality in a leader.
