What it means?

Rationale

Step 1: Awareness

Understand the Leadership Model and the 6 Mindsets and the Organisation

Young Adult and Mentor would attend:

  • The WAGGGS Leadership Model and 6 Mindsets Training

  • Basic Training Course* (applicable to the Young Leader only. Mentor should technically have attended BTC herself)
  • Complete the Advocacy GuidingLIGHT Resource (developed by SDG Committee)

  • All expenses paid under Training Grant.
  • She can also consider tying this in with her NYAA Gold if she wishes.

To allow the Young Leader and Mentor to speak the same language

Step 2: Practice

Consciously practise the Leadership Model

The practice component and internalise component will be interrelated.

Young Leader to identify a specific project that she would like to embark. The timeframe is 6 months to 1 year. 


Project could take place in two formats:

  1. Give a problem statement to solve
  2. Enhance existing programs

Project will be subject to approval by the relevant personnel.


Project would take reference from the Social Action Project developed by the SDG Committee.


The final project to be presented to Exco at the end of completion

To allow the Young Leader to practise through empowerment of designing, planning and executing the project

Step 3: Internalise
