April 2019 Leadership

Apprentice

Your assignment for Apprentice this week is to go back through all of your Leadership Class notes and review the things we have done this year. Write down at least 5 gold nuggets that you got from the class. (Gold nuggets: aha moments, lessons learned, etc.) Bring the list to class. [If this feels similar to an assignment for last month, it is. Sister Barber couldn't be there and she wants to hear them. :) ] Come  prepared to participate and have fun!

Read p. 259 to the end of the book. It's only about 35 pages worth of reading. Then, using your book mark if you still have it, or the table of contents that lists the 28 principles, read them over and see if you can summarize what each one means. If you can't remember, go to that chapter and review the principle so that you could tell someone about it in a couple of sentences.

Journeyman:


The 5000 Year Leap: A Miracle that Changed the World

Read pp. 218-257.  There are 6 principles (chapters) in these pages. On a piece of paper, write down each of the principles and a short summary (can be 3-5 sentences, if you can say that succinctly) of what they are, showing that you understand them.  You do not need to prepare a presentation this week.  We'll be using your summaries in class.


Masters:

Write a one page summary telling us what skills you have learned in Leadership that you are putting into practice.  If you aren't putting any of them into practice, write about some of the skills we have talked about and what you think you could do to start implementing some of them.
