When I came to Jeffreys Bay, I stood in front of the doors of VGY; I had chosen Leadership Stream and as with all new things in life, I did not really know what to expect. I had been involved in leadership and thought of myself as an ‘alright’ leader, but what I learned this year turned my ‘leadership world’ upside down. I was exposed to a different kind of leadership: the type where people follow you not because they have to, but because they want to; that Leadership isn’t about position, but all about influence.

I would have the privilege of using this ‘influential leadership’ on the incredible Leadership Stream outreach to the Transkei. This was a great opportunity to use all of the leadership theory we had learnt and put it into practice… We had a blast and even though the preparations were challenging at times, all was forgotten, once we were there and realized what a positive impact we were making in people’s lives.

As I look back at the year, I do not have any regret in the choice that I made for Leadership Stream. The lessons I have learnt through the tough times and the memories I have gained through the great times, I will take with me for the rest of my life. I learnt that leadership is more than a big boss giving orders. it’s about selflessly sacrificing of yourself and using great tools to make people’s lives better through living a life of influence.
