Regis Cebu Leadership by Leader Bryan V. Evangelista Call to Arms Speech

Good afternoon Prof. Jorge. For your perusal

Regis Cebu Leadership

Leader Bryan V. Evangelista

Call to Arms Speech: Be One of Us

I want to start by taking stock of where we all come from. Some of
you here are employed, practicing a profession, running your own
business or are in between jobs. As you can see we come from diverse
backgrounds but one thing we have in common is that we want to provide
a good life for our family and succeed in what we are doing. Am I
right?

Now let me ask you, when was the last time you asked yourself if you
were happy? Some of you might suffer from analysis paralysis, asking
yourselves "what does he mean by happy" Allow me to make it simple for
you, something as simple as being happily married. Like me and my
wife, we are happily married – she is happy and I am married. To make
sure that we are happy, we go to workshops – I go to work, she goes to
shops.

MM Leadership Call to Arms Speech by Leader May Roxas

Hi Prof,

Here's my CTA speech for later. 

Call To Arms Speech

Sabi nila if you want to experience forever, run a marathon. If this is anywhere near true, this means I have already experienced three forevers. Can you imagine that? Three forevers in a single lifetime!

As much as I want to talk about finding forever, my topic is really about why you should run a marathon. But first, I'd like you to remove the misconception that marathons are just for hardcore or elite runners. Marathons are also for people who are mentally strong and people who are willing to put in hard work and commitment to the training.

I am no athlete and I grew up trying to avoid gym class as much as I can, but this year I was  able to run two 42k distances and one 50k. In this speech, I will tell you why I did such and hopefully be able to convince you to do the same.

#1 Running is simple yet rewarding. To quote Meb Keflezighi, American top marathoner, "Running is simple. It is the simplest thing you can do and the most inexpensive – just your shoes and shirt. But it's the most rewarding to say "You know what? I ran four miles today before work, or five miles or ten miles." It's such a gratifying moment."

Innovation in teaching the Leadership Course

'Quamplurimi et quam aptissimi" (As many as possible of the very best)

                                        Team building in the class room

This author is very elated and happy that he has contributed albeit in a small way to the development/improvement of the Leadership course. He finished two classes all ready; is conducting a third one.  By next week, he will have two other courses in the province There are various innovation that he has  added into the course:

1.  Employment of info tech and web site for the posting of learning materials, for the forum (comments) class participation, for the class. Student leaders become more well versed and less fearful of the information technology.

2.  Call to Arms speeches.   This  is an essential part of Leadership development.   The ability to communicate to the constituents, in a convincing, rousing, emotional, manner is a key competence that must be developed in leaders.  For many, speech making is a fearful event, or sometimes an ordeal

3.  The movie synopsis, life story, and JCampbell analysis is an innovation,  Three parallel analysis is made so the Leader becomes fully aware that "ang buhay ay parang sine"  As we become aware of our life, we become fully aware of others so that we can engage and relate to them in meaningful way.  Telling stories, even movies is leadership.  Leadership is not what we just tell, even more than what we do, but who we are as we reveal this to others through story telling of our life.  Now we have even a greater medium:   photos, movie maker, video, Daily Motion, and You tube.

Sharing their life story by uploading this in third party sites is a fearful thought  though to many, but as a leader you must be thick skinned enough to reveal yourself to others.  As a leader, your life becomes available for the public scrutiny.  You and your life must be able to stand up to that scrutiny and visibility.

4.  Adding Servant Leadership as a material.

5.  Adding Filipino leaders as materials:   Andres Bonifacio, Heneral Luna, Rizal, Ninoy Aquino Filipino leadership traits.

6.  Adding the Chinese President Xi Jinping leadership, his rise to power, and why China being led by him acts that way. And other contemporary world leaders  like Brazilian  President whose country is in a big economic difficulty

7.  Use of power in leadership.  Power and leadership go together. How do you employ, and why is power is necessary when you are a leader of a big group? This is explored in depth, and

8   Buddhism, Socrates and self awareness.

Others:

9.  Team building activities within and outside the campus.  I believe that team building is essential part of Leadership training.   Team building activities to sharpen communication skills, team engagement, problem solving and strategizing MUST BE PART OF LEADERSHIP TRAINING. Parang kulang, bitin pag wala.

10  Employing songs like Greatest Love of All, This Girl is on Fire to fire up motivate the leaders, and having games in the classroom related to this.

11. Making sure that the student leaders practice Leadership in Action, by having class secretary, by having groups co manage the class, by having the committees figure out/plan and implement other class activities as team building.   Persons/group are assigned to manage food logistics, because the canteen closes early

12.  Publishing photos of the  class activities in this site and at FB pages. We encourage class participation outside the class room by having them make comments on the posts

13. Giving prizes and recognition for deeds that need recognition and reinforcement, like to  winners of call to arms speeches, winners and debate with small gifts like candies, Japanese home products items.

14 Opening the class with a debate to have people thinking about leadership in a deep way.

Will there be more?  You bet

                             Gab makes sure that we are not hungry and not foolish

These items are over over and above  course requirement to deliver mostly Ignatian leadership, Chris Lowney to Student Leaders of this course.

This is spurred by magis - Heroism on my part, ie to make this course much much better under my own volition passion and drive.

Call to Arms speech by leader Jose Manuel Pontillas

Thanks,

Session 6 speech from kong2007

They say that good and effective leaders have sense of humor... like Miriam Defensor who always starts her speech with her pick -up lines...And so I would like to start my speech with these...Ang mga kwentong tsinelas...!

http://www.slideshare.net/kong2007/session-6-speech

My speech today is related with Tsinelas...it's called the "TSINELAS Leadership".  It's a brand of the late DILG Cabinet Secretary Jesse Robredo.... If we remember, Robredo died on a plane crash in Masbate last August 18 of 2012. The concept of Tsinelas Leadership was conceived after the death of Robredo.  It was actually conceptualized by former Energy Secretary Rene Almendras and introduced during his Eulogy at the wake of Secretary Robredo.  He coined it "Tsinelas Leadership" because tsinelas , t-shirt and shorts were Robredo's signature attire , who had been known to show up for work and wade the flooded streets of Naga in slippers, ready to get his feet wet...
