Meet a Leadership Conference Attendee!
Denver Fowler Vice President of Health, Wellness and Accountability Iota Rho-Clemson
"The Alpha Phi Leadership Conference has made me so excited to be a part of this outstanding organization with amazing sisters! I have gained such valuable lessons and knowledge at this Conference on how to be a compassionate and supportive leader to my chapter! Overall, attending this conference as an Executive Council leader has made me realize that I made the best decision that I could have made in my college career — running home to Alpha Phi on Bid Day!" What was your biggest takeaway from this year’s Leadership Conference? My biggest takeaway from the Alpha Phi Leadership Conference was the other personal experiences and insights that I heard about from other Alpha Phis across the South and West quadrants! Being able to connect with this large network of collegians was invaluable to my college experience in Greek life. I learned about the traditions and events that other chapters have implemented, I have had such a great time meeting sisters that are a part of this great organization with me. Which information or session did you find the most helpful? One of my favorite sessions was the information session with Bonny Shade. She gave such an amazing presentation about leadership and how to be an effective leader in your sorority chapter. Her talk was my first session of the Leadership Conference, and she gave me such motivation and excitement to learn about how to be a better executive leader in my chapter, Iota Rho. Overall, I feel that it gave me such a good insight into what the next few days would look like at the Conference regarding maintaining a healthy chapter with thriving and happy members! What advice would you offer other Alpha Phi officers who may attend future Leadership Conferences? My advice to future Alpha Phi officers attending Leadership Conference would be to take on any opportunity to make friends with other Alpha Phi executive officers. Being a part of a sisterhood means that you are always looking for ways to create relationships. With my excitement in being present at Leadership Conference, I talked to other Alpha Phis and advisors around me in the information sessions and got to know them and their chapters. Alpha Phi’s sisters are bonded with the same mission of raising awareness for heart health, and in doing this, we should come together in friendships to further connect as sisters, even over miles of distance from each other!
