New Resource for Leaders 4 Life

New Resource for Leaders 4 Life

The Texas 4-H Youth Leadership Task Force partnered with Specialists from the Minnesota Center for Youth Development to create leadership lessons called "Launching Life Long Leadership." The lessons focus on 7 core competencies of leadership and the target age is 6-8 grade, however, I believe you will be able to use many of these activities for high school and some may even be appropriate for younger youth! The core competencies addressed include:
  • Defining Leadership
  • Understanding Self
  • Communication
  • Organization
  • Group Dynamics
  • Decision Making
  • Respect
This packet of materials is the first installment and includes 20 lessons, some of which were written by members of the Youth Leadership Task Force! Minnesota is still working on more lessons and as they are completed, more will be added to our website!
The packet is posted on the Leaders 4 Life website at http://texas4-h.tamu.edu/projects/leaders4life/index.php
