HS.103 Developing a Service-Leadership Attitude (PowerPoint)
This LifeKnowledge lesson (HS.103, “Developing a Service-Leadership Attitude”) is a high school FFA leadership lesson in which students define service-leadership, explore the relationship between serving and leading through a “Squares of Influence” matrix, and identify the behaviors of a person with a service-leadership attitude. Using a sports/game metaphor of “life coaches” and “plays,” students complete activities, poster projects, and a written assessment to reinforce the concepts.
