2017 Leadership Seminar
Grounded & Growing, June 2-4, 2017
St. Methodios Retreat Center, Contoocook, NH
The 2017 Leadership Seminar will empower ambassadors to become grounded in their current leadership skills and understand aspects of their identity through exploring Individual Leadership, while also growing new leadership skills to enable ambassadors to flourish in their schools, communities, and leadership positions through effective Group Leadership. Ambassadors will also examine the root causes of a variety of issues facing their schools and communities, and create a plan to address said issues during the Leadership for Society portion of the program. Most importantly, ambassadors will plant the seeds - quite literally - for positive social change during our Leadership in Action service project at the NH Food Bank Production Garden. Throughout the weekend, ambassadors will grow to be leaders with a strong sense of self and purpose while being grounded in a commitment to social action.
