Our Rec 280 - Leadership and Management in Rec and Sport class was back in the lab today. Our third group of students led their classmates through activities on peer pressure, group cohesion, motivation, and organizational culture types! This course is designed to convey critical concepts in leadership and management while allowing students to practice those concepts through activities like these. Our facilitating group did great today!
