Middle School Experience in Leadership delegates play the teambuilding and problem-solving game "Scrambler". In "Scrambler," participants must successfully navigate each team member through a grid-like maze without talking. If participants step on a "scrambler" square, the maze resets and the team must start over. |
MLW's programs provide unique opportunities for students to grow by developing the skills of leadership. Students actively learn about such topics as:
Group Dynamics
Team Building
Self Awareness
Conflict Resolution
Interpersonal Communication
Diversity Awareness
Ethical Decision-making
Leadership Styles
Time/Stress Management
Public Speaking
Motivation
Project Management
Public Relations
Delegation
Most importantly, students have many opportunities to actually apply the skills they are learning through the various activities and projects they plan and implement during our week long summer programs.
FEATURED CURRICULA: COMMUNICATION SKILLS
Communication skills are among the many topics addressed in our programs. Active listening and giving/receiving feedback are two aspects of this skills set that every leader, young or old, must learn to master.
