Free Kansas Leadership Center Training
The Foundation is investing $100,000 during the next three years in Kansas Leadership Center training in support of Kansas alumni and volunteers. This training is a $300 per person value that Kansas companies hold in high regard. The training also includes access to a 360 Personal Leadership Assessment, the KLC Leadership Portal and Web Chats for each individual. It is open to alumni, Extension staff, 4-H volunteers or perspective volunteers, and we would appreciate your helping in promoting the events. We invite all to attend one or more of the trainings.
The free trainings provide:
• An individual opportunity to learn leadership as an activity and behavior, not an elected position. This concept requires ongoing learning and practice.
• Insight into your role as a 4-H leader in helping youth realize that leadership is a behavior, and anyone can lead, anytime, anywhere.
All Trainings are from 10am to 3pm. Dates include:
January 15 Kansas Leadership Center, Wichita
February 19 Kansas Leadership Center, Wichita
March 5 Fort Hays State University, Hays
April 15 Garden City Fairgrounds, Garden City
May 20 Kansas Leadership Center, Wichita
October 14 Kansas Leadership Center, Wichita
November 20 Rock Springs 4-H Center, Juncion City
The Kansas Leadership Center, established in 2008, has not worked in youth programming. They are now working with the Kansas 4-H Youth Council to pilot the curriculum to a youth audience. This leadership curriculum is offered to students at Kansas universities like K-State, Emporia State, Wichita State, etc. We’re hoping that in the years to come we can give our 4-H’ers a head start on their collegiate career!
Here’s how you can help:
• You are welcome to attend any and/or all sessions.
• Help promote registration.
• Encourage and/or bring alumni, leaders, and potential leader to events.
• Share feedback.
