Course Write Up:
The Student Leadership Challenge (SLC) Workshop shares information on the well-known Student Leadership Model, focusing on how we motivate our youths to mobilise others to want to get things done. It’s about the practices that leaders use to transform values into actions, visions into realities, obstacles into innovations, separateness into solidarity, and risks into rewards.
Grounded in over 30 years of extensive research, Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner have identified The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership that are common when leaders are able to make extraordinary things happen.
