Re: Student Initiative

Student leaders, teachers, and mentors walk a fine line between guiding and doing when trying to help team members develop initiative.

To develop better skills in the area of guiding means being willing to step back, to keep your opinions in check, to hand the tool to someone instead of keeping it yourself. Instilling confidence and encouraging initiative requires patience and freedom on your part. Patience and freedom to succeed or to fail. Lessons will be learned through the experience. It is hard for someone who knows the answer to be still and let the quiet person speak. Teachers and mentors know this. Student leaders learn this. New members who have received wise guidance and are allowed to experience the results of their own actions and how it impacts the team as a whole, develop into student leaders, teachers, and mentors who guide and encourage.
