Just came back from ALC leadership camp , whole body ache sad case .But it was quite fruitful.I want to thank god for being the source of my strength there .

For me , I set my camp objective b4 i went there .As it was a leadership camp , it was to enlarge my comfort zone and learn some new skills there .

Day 1

For the first day ,they intro the K & P model .K & P model mean Kouzes & posner's 5 practices of exemplary leadership.These 5 practices I felt i had learn before in church . You will know why i as i go through it during the process of the camp.

Encourage the heart

Recognize contributions

1. People within the organization are the ones who make things happen
2. Personalize recognition

Celebrate the values and victories

1. Celebrations don’t have to be public or elaborate, but they should be genuine acknowledgements of success (even small successes)
2. Celebrations can create a sense of community
3. Good leaders show they care
   

Note: Not everyone responds to recognition the same way; a good leader knows the people in the organization well enough to personalize the recognition

Interesting right ? In church , I remember we should encourage one another .If people had contributed in something words like "good job" or "great effort" should be said .

I also remember we should said thing to build people up .

For this point, it not only for leaders but followers too ...Because how good a team is .It based on all the people in the team.

Enable Other To Act

Foster collaboration

1. Create a climate of trust
2. Facilitate relationships
3. Be willing to share information and resources
4. One of the easiest ways to foster collaboration is by use of the word “we” instead of “I”
5. Ask questions, listen and be willing to take advice
6. Actively involve others
   

Strengthen others

1. Enhance self-determination
2. Develop competence and confidence
3. Seeing the potential in them

Note:You cannot be an effective leader if you don’t trust the people you seek to lead and people won’t accept you as their leader if they don’t trust you. Trust is contagious; but if lost it is much more difficult (and sometimes impossible) to re-earn.

For this practice , I recalled a saying I heard in church .Which is , " I do , You See " , " I do , You do " and lastly " I See , You do "

For this , sometime you need to give other a chance to share their thinking .

Sorry audiences , I a little tired .......To be continued
