Course Description:

Leadership: As a former D1 college football athlete, I learned strong leaders are accountable and trust worthy enough to take care of their responsibility and also wise enough to help their teammates function on a high level. A team full of these types of leaders creates championship teams. These are the traits we would instill into the students to create a championship environment in the business world. Helping the students to reach their full potential, and then take on a leadership role to help their peers is something this organization is designed to do.

Peer to peer interaction: With this portion of the organization, the students will engage in role playing scenarios to practice and experience interacting in positive ways. Finding ways to promote a positive movement will make doing business a more enjoyable process.

Problem solving: Problem solving is an everyday occurrence in each person’s life, and the better you can master this skill, the easier you will be able to find success. Acknowledging that we all face some type of problem in our life, big or small, we can teach the skills and approaches for seeking a solution to prioritize these problems. For confrontational problem solving, we teach nonviolent solution approaches. For time management and work-related problem solving, we teach organizational solution approaches.

Mission Objective:  Social and Economic Justice Competency: Students will successfully engage with communities to advance the writing and reading skills of the students in the communities that suffer from historical trauma.  Diversity Competency: Students will learn awareness to eliminate biases towards marginalized groups and learn communication skills to help positively change lives.  Research Competency: Students will use practice experience to formulate research evidence to generate best practices.
