是什么激发了你？

I'm inspired by leaders who do not look to push their own personal agenda, but instead empower others to share their vision as well. Leaders who create trusting community in this way inspire me.

告诉我们是哪次时间影响了你而使你感兴趣并加入我们的。

Active peace and non-violence matters to me. I'm a follower of Jesus and I believe that the bible shows Jesus as an active man working to bring holistic peace and reconciliation to the world around him. (email me if you''d like to talk more about his) He came to bring harmony with god, harmony with other people, harmony with ourselves, and harmony with creation. In my research this is the most biblical view of Jesus. The Christianity that is wrapped in an American flag and has Jesus blessing American Imperialism is a lie. Jesus did not support the imperial powers of his time (Rome) and he wouldn't support any war in our time. Love and self-sacrificing servanthood are the characteristics of his kingdom.

分享你认为如何成为好的领导者的观点。

A good leader leads by example and serves the people who need it most.

A good leader is always empowering others to become better.

A good leader always speaks the truth in love, even when it hurts. People need to be corrected sometimes and if they trust that their leader's correcting them because he cares they will grow and mature from that experience.

Finally, a good leader is always releasing his responsibilities to the people he is leading. The best leaders work themselves out of a Job by training the people they are working with to fill their role.

你是否认为TIG可以帮助你达到一些目标？我们做得足够吗？请给我们提些建议。

I think that TIG has a lot of potential to help people network and get together to activate projects although I haven't experienced this because of my lack of involvement. I hope to see some good things come from TIG this fall while I'm in school and more involved.
