“Effective Leadership is moving from hierarchical, top-down leadership models to inclusive, participatory leadership styles. Effective leaders are people who commit themselves to tackling challenges, help their community articulate a vision for change, and build the commitment and wherewithal to improve the lives of people within the community.”

yourself down Do it Now Attract a Mentor/Ask for
Help Have a positive attitude

“As a counselor, you have to be conscious of your community and the constituents.”
Jean encourages our students, as the generation of potential leaders to become involved in our community, and not wait for “someone else to do it”.

“Leaders bring to the table the concerns of our own rural communities and represent the area. They are the voice of the community in their leadership roles.” An example Julie used was her input regarding HRSDC funding for not-for-profits and how policies were changed as a result of lobbying the right government officials.
