Re: Student Initiative

Initiative is something that is embedded within a person's character. Some people don't have any, and it's a fact of life that they have to deal with.

Some people show their initiative fully and express it as soon as they walk into the club. Other members need to have their initiave coaxed out into the open.

To do this they really need to have a unique or certain skill that they can bring to the team. New members can nurture their talent through working one on one with more experianced team members.

I plan to put my subdivision leaders (and ivolved members) in charge of working with a different new member each day. Formal training classes are not what new members come down to the club after school for (they are boring). The one on one apprenticeship must be stressed.

Now it's difficult for this system to work if there are 20 new members that come down at the beginning of the school year. Because of this, there needs to be some sort of rotation and/or scheduling. Once the new members get a hang of it, they can break away and start doing things on their own- or they can be assigned new members to work one on one with them.

Hope it helps,
Sam N.
