On February 23rd & 24th, four members of Supporting Women in Political Science (SWIPS) — Ashlyn Scott, Breanna Delagarza, Juan Perez, and Jazmin Pantoja — attended the Texas State University Leadership Institute Annual Conference. The theme of this year’s conference was based upon the Common Experience, “Lead. Create. Innovate. Leadership & Innovation for Change.” The conference offered SWIPS members the chance for personal and professional growth by providing new leadership skills and networking connections. “My most valuable take-away, “ observed Ashlyn Scott, “was that when you are leading do not look to just yourself, look to those around you. A more collaborative approach to leadership is often the most effective way of leading.”
SWIPS meets bi-weekly on Tuesday nights at 7:00 p.m., the next meeting will be on March 5th. For more information, please contact txstswips@gmail.com.
