too many students who hang out here thinks “leadership” simply means being elected president of the X club (which is often just a popularity contest, and can mean next to nothing). I agree with the post above; what they are really looking for is initiative, whether on behalf of a club, or a team, or a volunteer situation, or even developing a skill on your own out of interest and turning it into something special and innovative. Just checking off boxes on an application is not leadership.
