Leading Teams and Organizations with Head and Heart |
2.00 |
As leaders, we must ensure that we are not only modeling social-emotional and character skills ourselves, but creating program environments for staff to thrive in these areas. Organizations can intentionally embrace and uphold practices that create safe environments for staff to develop and hone such skills individually and collectively, especially amongst change. In this course, participants will understand three stages of change, and how staff experience each. Participants will also become familiar with adaptive leadership strategies for managing change within organizations. |

Course 19: Involving School-Age Children in Activity Planning and Implementation |
2.00 |
As they grow and change and move toward independence, school-age children and youth become very interested in planning and directing their own activities. This means it’s very important for staff to think of ways to involve them in program planning and implementation. By planning activities WITH children instead of FOR them and engaging them in creating the program environment, staff can help children develop a feeling of ownership of the program – a positive feeling that the program belongs to them. |
