My Greatest Weaknesses: President Of The American Red Cross Club

My greatest weakness is that I strongly dislike confrontation. In the past, at certain times I have found myself compromising on what I desired or needed, just to keep everyone happy and peaceful. This was a real problem, especially when I was supposed to be the leader of a group. For example, as President of the American Red Cross Club at my school, there were times I needed to tell people things they might not necessarily want to hear. Since then I’ve worked hard to overcome this weakness. Now, instead of avoiding these kinds of situations, I try to be more assertive without coming across as difficult. I take the time to carefully weigh each side of the situation and make sure that my comments or criticisms are constructive and logical. Now,
I am known as the mediator of my group, because I always try to be fair and help others resolve their disputes.
