National Youth Workers - Day 2

High light - Learn To Lead Building Your Leadership Capacity by Rev. Dr. John McAuley

He talked about the common realities that leaders face. They are complexity, confusion and chaos. He talked about some guiding principles for us to lead in the midst of these common realities. Like any good workshop speaker he boiled it down to three things. We must build credibility, capacity and clarity.

Low point - Getting stuck in an elevator with 15 other youth workers and 3 innocent bystanders. When they say maximum capacity 19 people that is not a dare but a warning. The sign should have said 18 people OK, 19 people will get you stuck in an a hot stinky elevator for 20 minutes.

Well it is time to get off to the next session. I will catch you tomorrow.
