Teach Me Teamwork

Teaching Teamwork at the North Carolina Youth Giving Summit

 

IATF member and good friend Eric Rowls invited me to present two leadership development workshops at the recent North Carolina Youth Giving Summit.  The video above is a news spot on TV about the event.

Eric is the president of Leading To Change and also heads up the North Carolina Youth Giving Network.

Eric and his inspired team are doing amazing work with youth and those who work with youth. Eric has surrounded himself with outstanding people which makes for events that run smoothly and are high energy.

Eric and his team are experts at “production” – – the music, lighting, balloons, signs, check-in, handouts, gifts for participants, food, name tags, snacks, seating, etc.  When you walk into a Leading To Change event you immediately know you’re about to experience something special.

In the above video from the TV news crew you’ll see me leading a game involving tennis balls – – I call this game “Tennis Ball Madness” and I used it to help the students learn what “lose-lose”, “win-lose”, and “win-win” feel like.  I’ve led this same game with a wide variety of groups (corporate groups, nonprofits, health care, educators, students, military).  The game is a powerful learning opportunity.
