Emerging Leaders Say… Jose F. Rodriguez (Inaugural ELP Member, 2007– 2009 Class), Florida International

Emerging Leaders Say… Jose F. Rodriguez (Inaugural ELP Member, 2007– 2009 Class), Florida International University "I feel more connected to the organization than ever before. I feel I have a wealth of resources at my fingertips. I feel I have developed as a professional in the field of advising and am being recognized at such. For those considering being mentors, this is a great way to help others out. It’s a unique opportunity to form a special bond with another member of the association and help them to navigate the organization. For those considering being Emerging Leaders, this type of programming helps to increase the sense of community I already felt from being a member of NACADA. It forces you to develop leadership skills and is a great avenue to apply leadership and management skills, especially if you are in a position at work that you don’t consider to have a lot of supervisory responsibilities. ”

Emerging Leaders Say… Terri Baker Miller (2012 -2014 Class), University of California-San Diego “Sometimes in life you need an extra push to become a better version of yourself. The ELP program helped to do that for me. My time within the program was well spent… the connections that I have made will inspire me to continue challenging myself and creating new goals… I am eternally grateful to the NACADA ELP program for jump starting the next steps in my career and involvement with a community of academic advisors who inspire and support me. ”

Emerging Leaders Say… Cynthia Pascal (2010– 2012 Class), Northern Virginia Community College "This experience

Emerging Leaders Say… Cynthia Pascal (2010– 2012 Class), Northern Virginia Community College "This experience is hard to quantify or qualify. Since joining NACADA’s Emerging Leader Program, I have had an extraordinary surge of courage and confidence to apply for NACADA leadership opportunities as well as advising administrator positions that I would have otherwise never exposed myself to. I was surprised to see how brave I became when I knew I had a support mechanism in place. I found myself looking for more and more challenging opportunities, contacting [my mentor] for recommendations, support, and guidance, then putting myself out there…which is completely outside of my comfort zone. Even when I failed, I knew I had the support to get back up and try again, instead of being defeated. ”

Emerging Leaders Say… Ross Hawkins (2011– 2013 Class), Missouri State University "Although my goals have changed over the last two years, I’m more involved with NACADA than ever before. . It is because of the Emerging Leaders Program and [my mentor] that I’ve felt comfortable and confident as I’ve navigated my path of involvement with NACADA. . . Thanks to all those before us who paved the way for this program. It has been one of the best professional and personal opportunities of my life. ”

Emerging Leaders Say… Heather Doyle (2009– 2011 Class), Dalhousie University "The Emerging Leader program

Emerging Leaders Say… Heather Doyle (2009– 2011 Class), Dalhousie University "The Emerging Leader program has not only increased my involvement within NACADA, but it has also influenced how I do my job, and how advising is structured on my campus. The involvement that I have had, the opportunities that I have been exposed to and the life long connections I have made, make ELP one of the best experiences I have ever had; not only professionally, but also personally. Thank you NACADA for such an amazing program!”

Emerging Leaders Say… Amy Korthank (2012– 2014 Class), University of Iowa “Above and beyond

Emerging Leaders Say… Amy Korthank (2012– 2014 Class), University of Iowa “Above and beyond the Mentor experience – which has been amazing – ELP has truly given me something very special through becoming part of the larger ELP family. That has been the most surprising and rewarding aspect of this experience is that I have gained so many people that I truly think of as my NACADA family… When people ask me to explain the ELP program to them, the one that I come back to again and again is family. Thank you for letting me be a part of this process. I am so excited for the future. ”

Emerging Leaders Say… Yvonne Halden (2010– 2012 Class), University of Manitoba “As I reflect

Emerging Leaders Say… Yvonne Halden (2010– 2012 Class), University of Manitoba “As I reflect over the last two years in the ELP program I would say it has been a great experience professionally and personally. From the moment I applied, I believe I have had an opportunity through self-reflection, professional growth and the opportunity to build strong relationships within NACADA. As advisors we all know that we are on a continual road of life long learning and the Emerging Leaders Program is part of my journey. The program has provided me with the opportunity to think outside of my box. I have taken on initiatives and opportunities that I never would have considered. ”

Mentors Say… Jayne Drake (2007 -2009 and 2008 -2010 Classes), Temple University "Over the past several years, I have had the extraordinary good fortune of working with two 'leaders in training. ' This experience has been life altering for me in the sense that I have had the opportunity to meet a number of truly wise and talented people whose commitment to the profession, to their own professional development, and to each other is a lesson in humility and dedication. Some value added to becoming an ELP mentor: from these two relationshipbuilding / mentoring experiences, I have made two dear friends for life. Please join the ELP, if not for yourself, then for the future of the Association. ”

Mentors Say… JP Regalado (2011 -2013 Class), Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi "I knew that I needed to apply to be an ELP Mentor but I hesitated for many years because I didn't know if I could commit the time that was necessary. Now that I am a mentor, I can't believe I waited so long! It has truly been one of the best professional experiences in my career. My mentee and I talk on a regular basis and have become great friends. I am grateful for having the opportunity to "mentor" her but I have gotten as much out of the experience as she has. ”

Mentors Say… Laura Mooney (2010 -2012 Class), Florida Atlantic University "Although I heard past mentors say the same, I was surprised by how much I felt encouraged to grow by witnessing [my mentee's] example. Seeing her drive, enthusiasm, and undaunted courage has been an inspiration for me in many challenging moments both personally and professionally. . I am honored to have had an opportunity to help and support her during the past two years. ”

Mentors Say… Jennifer Bloom (2007 -2009 and Class), University of South Carolina-Columbia "My experience as an Emerging Leader mentor has been one of the highlights of my career. I have learned as much from my mentee as I hope he has learned from me. We have a supportive relationship that allows us to challenge each other to fulfill our potentials as leaders in, and contributors to, the field of advising. Our relationship will not stop at the end of the two years in the ELP. Instead, we have built a trust and rapport that I treasure and am committed to continuing to nurture for life. ”

Mentors Say… Jennifer Hodges (2013 -2015 and Class), New Mexico State University "The mentor role provides opportunity for growth in sometimes unexpected ways. Mentoring another professional requires reflecting on your own career and experiences. It is good to have a structured program that provides space for that type of reflection. Another benefit is spending time with a newer professional whose level of enthusiasm and energy is contagious. ”

Mentors Say… Patricia Griffin (2013 -2015 and Class), Fort Hays State University “I came into my ELP role with an expectation of myself as investing in a future leader of NACADA, reflecting on my own professional development to assist another, and realizing further leadership development. I have experienced so much more. This experience has stretched me to grow as a professional and share my experience and knowledge with another. I have learned a tremendous amount through the perspective of another. I would encourage others to serve as a mentor. ”
