Leadership Baylor Classes
Michael McBrien, Head of School
All students in grades 6-8 are exposed to a variety of activities that build upon leadership development. Upon entering the ninth grade and continuing right up to their graduation, all students are required to attend Leadership Baylor classes. Our curriculum emphasizes the importance of principled leadership based on core values. In working with students, we focus on leadership as a collaborative process rather than a singular position.
The topics covered in these classes include:
- What Makes A Great Leader?
- Communication is More than Talking
- Ethics Up Close and Personal
- Personal Leadership and Goal Setting
- Leadership from a Historical Perspective
- Conflict Management
- Ethical Decision-Making from a Group Perspective
- Planning, Organizing and Executing a Meeting
- Writing a Personal Leadership Plan
- Leading from Within
- It Takes More than One to Make a Team
