Maximising the Badge
Recommended for Leadership Teams
This program will allow each of your students to discover that they already have the potential within them to lead regardless of badge, title or age. Maximising the Badge promotes the vision that a leader is someone who makes a difference and makes the world a better place – be it on a local or global scale. Sometimes we just need a few more tools and skills to help us achieve effectively.
Students will learn the difference between leading and managing and how both are needed to create effective change. They will also learn specific skills in how to manage a team, engage team members and how to keep momentum throughout the year. An opportunity will also be provided to put the lessons of the day into real action planning.
