Hi Gabriela,
You don't have to be a natural born leader to become a Team Leader at SFI. Anyone can learn to be a leader here, because in this specific circumstance, the word 'leader' is really a synonym for adviser, guide, mentor, coach or teacher.
We are all blessed with one or more of these qualities, even though we may not realize it, because it is in our nature to want to help or advise the people around us, especially those we appreciate and respect.
Proof of this is in the way we interact with our friends and families as well as others who are an important part of our lives. We have a tendency to give advice (many times unsolicited) when we feel someone needs guidance; or we insist on sharing an interesting fact or a personal experience when we think it can help improve somebody's life.
Therefore, all you need to do here at SFI is continue to do what comes natural to you, although now you'll do it with strangers, so try to get to know the members of your team and their individual needs. Once they realize that you are ready and willing to help them reach their goals, they will open up to you and follow your advice.
Make sure you understand the basic guidelines of what to do and what not to do as an SFI Team Leader, by learning "How to be an Awesome Sponsor", then add your personal touch each time you communicate with your affiliates. I assure you, if you do this, you will become a great leader!
And remember: it doesn't matter if you're a newcomer at SFI. You will still have been here longer than any of your new PSAs or CSAs, so you will always have something new and important to share with them.
I hope this helps!
