Students need frames for creative leadership \u2013 and practice to grow into leaders who foster collaborative, creative teams. In other words, we need to develop a curriculum for creative leadership that can operate in the authentic context of project-based learning.\r\nAt Leadership+Design Studio, we\u2019ve developed a leadership curriculum that operates in parallel with a three-day design thinking project. Students practice creative leadership while working in a small group to create new solutions to a design problem. \r\nIn this conversation, we\u2019ll practice using some of the tools from Leadership+Design Studio and explore how they can help develop young creative leaders. We\u2019ll also share case studies from our work in the field.\r\nTopics for rehearsal include:\r\n\u2022\t\u201cTask\u201d and \u201cMaintenance\u201d \u2013 and teaching students to observe the difference\r\n\u2022\tWaterline Model \u2013 learning to diagnose problems in group dynamics in a way students can apply\r\n\u2022\tSpeedback \u2013 learning to give behaviorally specific feedback\r\n\r\nParticipants will benefit from watching a 30 minute video introducing core concepts before the workshop so that we can spend the bulk of our time together engaged in hands-on practice. This video is posted at www.leadingislearning.org\/resources.\r\n\r\nThis is a hands-on, participatory conversation that will prepare participants to use to classroom-ready resources available on-line at leadingislearning.org\/resources to continue the work once they leave.","Link":[],"Audience":["High School","Middle School"],"Practice":"Laboratory.
