This has a new registration form – the earlier one was problematic.
Massey University is running a Young Women in Leadership Programme at its Wellington campus. This programme aims to provide young women, who would not normally consider or be considered for leadership positions, with the opportunity to learn about the different aspects of leadership. We are inviting Year 12 students to apply for a place in this programme, which will run from 7th April to 16th June 2020.
This programme will assist you:
- To identify your values and passions and how this connects to the development of a leadership identity.
- To learn about the many different ways and contexts within which leadership is exercised and that it is not based on position.
· To develop leadership skills and experience in the delivery of a project.
As a programme participant, you will:
- Attend a day-long leadership training workshop on 7th April at the Massey campus (Wellington).
- Plan for and deliver a small-scale project (to be conducted between 7th April – 16th June) with other students in the programme from your school. (However, if this is not possible, you can work with other students from your school who did not attend the workshop.) Project examples include awareness raising, educational programmes or campaigns, small-scale events, fundraising for charity, and preparation of a presentation or submission to another entity (such as a council). You will receive mentorship from Massey University to provide you with guidance and advice.
- Attend a second half-day workshop on 16th June and give a short presentation on your project.
- Be awarded a Massey University certificate on successful completion of the programme.
The programme is open to all students who wish to attend, provided:
· You are interested in developing leadership skills and knowledge
· You are willing to commit to the delivery of a project, and
· You have the support of your school.
The final shortlist will be determined by Massey University and preference will be given to young women who are not currently in leadership positions within their school.
Places are limited to 80 participants. Due 21st February
