Leadership: From Self to Team

FRC FTC Mentors & Coaches Leadership
Leadership has two sides: building the habits that make you effective as an individual leader, and shaping the culture that helps your team succeed. This session gives a general overview of both—from personal strengths and leadership styles to team vision, mission statements, and conflict resolution. Student leaders will learn how to grow themselves and unify their teams, and mentors will walk away with practical tools to guide and support their students and team.
