Sit on a committee. You will learn more about how your org runs, and that gives you insight on the bigger things. This is a great way to build leadership skills.
Don't wear 8 pieces of para at a time.
And some advice a good friend gave me many years ago... "take half of what you want to say and keep your mouth shut". In other words, listen more and talk less.
Lastly, have fun! You did a lot of work to get where you are, and you know many people want to be in your place. Don't be a snob. Show everyone that being an XYZ is a fun part of your life (and rewarding).
