Editor's Notes
- Introductions of JCand NatKPWhy this topic is important to usFirst, we’d like to talk about why this topic is important to us.-We are both LeaderShape graduates and LeaderShape is a program we both strongly believe in, Joe was graduate intern for LeaderShape, Nat is Co-Lead Facilitator and Program Coordinator for the the program. We actually met at a session of LeaderShape in 2010.-LeaderShape is a not-for-profit organization with a mission of creating a just, caring thriving world where everyone leads with integrity and a healthy disregard for the impossible. The LeaderShape Institute is a 6 day living/learning program that has been around for more than 25 years and has more than 40,000 graduates with sessions at more than 80 colleges annually. There is also a one day program, Catalyst, that is about choosing, connecting and committing to leading with integrity and creating positive change.Any LeaderShape graduates in the room? -where did you attend and when?-what sticks out most for you about it?What we are hoping that each person will gain from our time together this morning
- This definition of leadership is what has grounded LeaderShape as an organization to be committed to working with young people to create a just, caring and thriving world. While this is a definition that I think most of us as educators can get behind, it can often feel a little lofty. What we hope to do today is to break down this definition, which is supported by the three core concepts of:A healthy disregard for the impossibleLead with integrityJust, Caring Thriving World To make them feel a little more tangible so they can be integrated into daily life
- Aspects of this are possibility and vision. Thinking in terms of what is possible instead of what is not. Possibility: Brainstorming, being open to suggestions and criticism and feedback, ways to improve, positivity allowed to explore and experiment, outside the box thinkingVision: being forward thinking, able to see beyond what is in front of you, thinking beyond this year and what is the impact for the PB in the future, service or non self orientated, outward directed, what is the benefit of the outward community
- On the back of your worksheet, respond to the first prompt. Give you a few minutes to respond to that.Aspectsof this are possibility and vision.

- Get in groups of three or four and respond to the following questions.
- Integrity/values: core personal values, organizational values and being aware of how those fit with your personal values. Does your organization have values? Hint they should! Transparency, explain the reason behind your decision, sharing information openly, freely and often. Managing missteps and mistakes. Admitting when that happens. Self knowledge and self awareness. Knowing who you are and how you show up to others.Teacher/Learning: resisting the desire and pressure to know it all. Acknowledging the contributions of others. Being generous with what you do know. Sharing information, and knowledge, not talking down to people. Collaborative. Making time and space for people to contribute. Transitions building bridges for those who come after you. What is your impact of leaving. Intentionality.
- Ultimately, this is about being true in word and deed and has everything to do with values.
- Back in your groups – answer these questions.Could anyone identify overlap in their personal values with the values of their institution or their organization?Integrity/values: core personal values, organizational values and being aware of how those fit with your personal values. Does your organization have values? Hint they should! Transparency, explain the reason behind your decision, sharing information openly, freely and often. Managing missteps and mistakes. Admitting when that happens. Self knowledge and self awareness. Knowing who you are and how you show up to others.
- Good leaders are inclusive. They know that everyone is a teacher and everyone is a learner.It can be hard when you’re in a position of power to say you don’t know, hard to be vulnerable or not have all the answers.Teacher/Learning: resisting the desire and pressure to know it all. Acknowledging the contributions of others. Being generous with what you do know. Sharing information, and knowledge, not talking down to people. Collaborative. Making time and space for people to contribute. Transitions building bridges for those who come after you. What is your impact of leaving. Intentionality.
- Back with your groups – take some time to work on these questions.What lessons can you apply? How do you know when you are leading with integrity?
- The last concept is a just, caring, thriving world. Two of the core elements of this are inclusivity and community. So let’s break those down.Inclusivity: how do you recruit, habits? Who do you reach out to? How do you reach out to people who “look different” from you. Do you make personal invitations? Do you reach out to groups you don’t normally see at events? And how are you asking them? Are you inclusive in the types of events that you plan? When you are at NACA do you look for a comedian who may appeal more to a large audience. Do you seek ideas from outside of your board and sphere of influence? Are there cliques within your own organization? Community: Who are you working with and for? Who are your other partners on campus? Do you work with other organizations? Do you help to bring the greater campus community? What is your responsibility to your greater campus community? Creating community within your own organization. Synergy. When you work together are you more impactful because of your collective work? Are you missing out on opportunities to be more excellent
