Deca Lesson
... Each of these attributes has been nurtured in me through a business program at my high school known as DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America). DECA is a marketing related organization that teaches different aspects of running and maintaining a business. ... Since my involvement in DECA, I have been inspired to work hard and to learn the necessary components to become an ideal leader. ... This aspect of leadership has been instilled in me during my time as a DECA chapter treasurer. ... As the treasurer for the money that was collected in fundraising activities, it was my job to receive these funds, count the money, and invest it into different financial aspects of the DECA program. ... Through the years I have seen my advisor put in countless personal hours into our DECA program. He sacrifices his time before and after school to help make our DECA chapter award winning in the state of New Jersey. ... On a smaller scale, he helped students with DECA manuals, which are written business proposals that are entered into competition against other high school students.
