Inspiring Leadership in Teens : Group Activities to Foster Integrity, Responsibility, and Compassion

This unique resource presents a comprehensive approach to developing student leadership.

It serves as a field guide for conducting leadership classes in schools, camps, and retreats.

By participating in group leadership activities and building on their newly learned skills, students gain the confidence needed to become leaders in school activities, athletic programs, and clubs-and later develop into good citizens, parents, members of the workforce, and participants in their communities.

The accompanying CD provides PDFs of all the reproducible forms and student handouts. Inspiring Leadership in Teens is written and designed for teachers, trainers, and youth leaders to help foster leadership skills in middle and high schools students.

The author provides 80 skill-building group activities that will inspire and challenge young leaders to develop their personal strengths, aspirations, and beliefs. The program is presented in six units:Creating a Learning CommunityStudying Leadership: Researching Inspiring LeadersCreating Leadership PortfoliosUnderstanding CommunicationLeading GroupsLiving Peace: Personal Aspirations and Beliefs"By understanding themselves as leaders, students can be confident in their skills and continue to build on these experiences as they become leaders in school activities, athletic programs, and clubs, and then develop into good citizens, parents, members of the workforce, and participants in their communities".-Ric Stuecker
