Keys of Leadership Education
by: Kerry Beck
Leadership education is
composed of 3 primary components:
1. Time - Structure time, not content. Set aside a specific
amount of time each day to study. As mom, you can "teach" during that
time and also allow your children to study. Some of this depends on
your children's ages.
2. Mentors - Mentors are necessary to model the habits of
studying and to guide the student in his studies. Mentors should spend
regular time with their students to discuss what is read and written.
This may be daily, weekly, or monthly depending on how old the student
is. Older kids can meet less frequently than younger students.
3. Classics - No surprise here! Classics are the center of
leadership education, as
they have been for centuries. Classics form the basis of real
education for leaders, entrepreneurs, and statesmen.
