Get the Lead Out

Welcome back to the Get the Lead Out podcast presented by Cal Poly's Center for Leadership and Service! This week we are joined by an alumni by the name of Ryan Vilfer. He's got so much prior involvement in Cal Poly leadership circles that words wouldn't do him justice. Take a listen to hear how life at Cal Poly has influenced the decisions he's making in the real world. It's an extremely insightful podcast and our first over the phone interview!

We've hit double digits and we have our most in depth interview yet! We are joined by Bailey Hamblin, a 5th year English major on her way out of Cal Poly, but she surely won't be forgotten. A crusader for social change, Bailey gives us insight on what it means to be a leader against sexual assault, dating violence, and the like. Enjoy a great episode!

This week's episode features Kevin Gong, a 4th year Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies major who is involved all over Cal Poly's campus. He gives testimonials about the genesis of his leadership and how anyone and everyone is or can be a leader. It's a great episode you'll want to listen to over and over.

On this special episode, we had a chance to ask a few individuals in the San Luis Obispo community about what motivates them to Make a Difference. October 24th was National Make a Difference Day and we received a large number of volunteers and viewpoints on service. Enjoy!

Tune into a quite relaxed podcast with one of the Center for Leadership and Service's student leaders, Robert Myers. With a heavy background in Cal Poly's Orientation Programs as a WOW Leader, Soar Leader, and Spring Training Facilitator, he's seen a lot and has even more to share!

Listen in on a brief interview with Eli Williams, a recent Cal Poly graduate, who just can't seem to get enough of life as a Mustang. After a stint with Americorps, he will be back on campus for a Masters in Counseling and Guidance. With a whole plethora of campus involvement whilst an undergraduate, Eli surely has a lot of insight worth listening to!

Meet Andy Ia, a recent Cal Poly graduate with a degree in Industrial Technology! Our time with Andy yielded surprising revelations, useful insight, and a humbling explanation of some of of the most rewarding applications of leadership. Give it a listen!

Meet Taelor Trimble, a fourth year double major in Psychology & Child Development, who can easily qualify as one of Cal Poly's most involved students. She is involved with Cal Poly's Greek Life, Child Development Club, Psychology Honors Society, and dance. Listen in to hear about how and why she got involved, balance, her personal style of leadership, and why you should always say "yes".
