"15 Tips for Instilling Leadership Skills in Children."
I found this article by John Rampton during my morning reading that I would like to share..
"Today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders, especially if those children have parents who are leaders. While leadership skills can come naturally, children learn lessons along the way that significantly impacts them later in life. The right words at the right time can make all the difference."
1. Set a good example.- Teach them accountability through effective leadership.
2. Encourage team activities -The best leaders learn to handle failure as gracefully as they handle success. Children need to learn to handle the loss and move forward.
4. Build negotiation skills. Every good leader knows the art of compromise.
5. Hone decision-making abilities.- Children should learn how to make good decisions as early in life as possible.
6. Practice confident communication.- this practice will help them gain confidence in themselves and be able to communicate what they need.
7. Encourage work.- essential to building leadership skills in children.
8. Encourage leadership activities or roles. This will help them learn to lead and manage people.
9. Have family game night.- Not just a unique way to spend time together, it helps children learn to be a good sport, play by the rules, and think strategically.
10. Teach project planning skills.- Treat each event as though it were a business project, holding brainstorming sessions and delegating smaller tasks to your young family members.
11. Use vision boards. Teach children goal-setting is through the use of vision boards. They’ll have fun cutting out pictures and arranging them on a board, and in the process they will learn how to visualize what they want to achieve.
12. Avoid jumping in.- consider stepping back and letting your children work through it themselves. After the fact, you can review the obstacles and challenges that emerged during the task and ask for ideas on how things could have been done differently.
13. Find a mentor.- a mentor can be invaluable.
14. Encourage reading.- children who read having greater intellectual progress in a variety of subjects. Young readers tend to learn more about the world, even when the reading is of a frivolous nature.
15. Reward optimistic thinking.- Reward optimism, especially when that optimism is connected to attempting to reach a goal.
