Dean Heperi

1.  Describe three different ways that you have made your love for students you lead visible through work you have done.

 I feel like initially working so hard with the branding campaign was a big part of showing that love, because I was very passionate about completing and putting together this branding campaign to help other students be able to identify with the organization, so that they can experience the life changing opportunities that await them with BYUSA

2.  Dean Heperi talked about the importance of truly loving those you work with enough to help them improve.  Please describe a time when you have had to help someone by having a difficult conversation about their need for improvement.  Please identify what things you said that helped you in this experience.

Normally, I try not to get into other people's business, and I allow them to make mistakes and whatnot because I have no jurisdiction over them and their agency, but when I've expressed concern and love to them, their attitudes have been able to change a lot more readily and easily. I can remember a couple of conversations when it comes to a couple of my girl friends, and their situations with the boys they dated. Remembering back to those conversations, where those girls have needed help in their lives, the most important and vital words spoken and unspoken were those of love, and not just from me, but from their Heavenly Father. Love, hope, and encouragement are probably the most vital things that make a difference. Specific things I've said are just assuring people that they are loved by their Heavenly Father, and that they are of divine worth, and have a divine potential.
