How can students become the front-row version of themselves? 🌟
Marlyn Sherman, High Point University’s Personal Development Expert in Residence, Hall of Fame speaker, and bestselling author inspired students to step outside their comfort zones and take intentional action toward success.
The Q&A was moderated by Business Administration and Pre-Law student Abbey Potter, who shared several lessons from Ms. Sherman that made a lasting impression:
✨ Own your seat with confidence and purpose.
⏰ Manage your energy, not just your time.
🤝 Find a mentor, advocate, and supporter who can help you grow.
🌱 Remember that leadership can begin before you have an official title.
Abbey reflected that these ideas provide students with a practical framework for becoming more productive, pursuing their goals, and building relationships that can support their future success.
Thank you, Ms. Sherman, for encouraging our students to show up with intention and choose the front row in their education, careers, and lives!
