ROOM SET-UP

In advance: In the training space, create nine separate areas such as hallways or nooks.

You need space to spread people out so that they have a feeling that there is some pri-

vacy when they are working at a station. Some leaders have created stations outdoors

as well as in several separate rooms and say this set-up works quite well. Place a Sta-

tion Sign at each of the nine station along with any necessary supplies or props.

Comments

This exercise can be done any time after the Leadership Development program begins.

It is a good and creative way to re-energize the process of developing goals to achieve

leadership competencies.
