Leadership Quality

When I was vice president of NTNU Magic Club. I once led club members to run the magic week which is a week-long event to promote our annual performance. I led this event by setting an example myself to inspire them. Showed my dedication and passion. Did the task and faced challenge side by side with them. Gave compliment publically to those who did good and constructed a vision that we are building a reputation for our club to motivate them.The result was positive. Not only club members felt more committed to the club but also Increase audiences of an annual performance by 50% more than last year.

Problem and Crisis Solving

I encountered a lot of crisis during running the Magic club. One example was the stage we borrowed for annual performance was suddenly retrieved by the school for opening a class. Initially, the school refused to let us use stage even we already borrowed it months ago. After I analyzed the situation, I believed the number will be the strength. So I suggest we rally other clubs that were also affected to pose pressures to school and contact the teacher of the class directly together. In the end, by doing so, we successfully got our stage back.

Entrepreneurship Quality

I proposed many innovative strategies to improve performance for Magic Club. For example, after I analyzed last year's problems, we modified value proposition which is more entertained to attract new recruits. By doing so, we tremendously increased new recruits by 100% more than last year. Another example was that I always search for opportunities to increase our resources. By building a good public relationship with other clubs, we were able to get assistance like equipment more effectively.
