1 What is leadership? Muskegon County 4-H Teen Leadership Project Guidelines and Portfolio Instructions Leadership is the ability to motivate, inspire and create an environment for each member of a group to participate. Leadership skills can be learned and developed by anyone. They include all of the qualities necessary to guide a group from one point to another. Leaders use their personal knowledge, skills and influence to establish relationships with people and help others meet their goals. Leaders need to understand varieties of leadership styles, skills and qualities and know in which situations to use them. Ideal leaders are able to lead and teach leadership at the same time. Leaders become effective by modeling the skills and characteristics they seek to pass on to others. They acquire trust by being a person of good character and they achieve power by empowering others. Leadership is something you believe in, but also something you put into action! A great way to learn about leadership is through developing leadership skills. 4-H offers youth the opportunity to learn about leadership skills and practice them at the same time. Deciding to be a teen leader in 4-H means looking at your involvement in your club and community and changing the way you participate by kicking it up a notch! By learning leadership skills, teens can take on new roles, and more effectively put their ideas into action. Overall objectives of 4-H teen leadership: Achieve a broad understanding of the meaning of leadership and the qualities of a leader. Understand and practice ethical character. Participate in team building. Encourage involvement for every individual in the group. Develop follow-through and responsibility. Improve written, verbal and interpersonal communication skills. Gain self-confidence and self-respect. Practice and acquire leadership skills. Examples of leadership skills teens learn and practice as a 4-H teen leader: Communicating Decision making and problem solving Resolving conflicts (negotiating) Motivating people Advocating ideas Creating positive images Gaining self-confidence Building coalitions among groups Developing job skills 1
2 What does a 4-H teen leader do? A 4-H teen leader is a youth between the ages of 13 and 19 who is interested in developing and practicing his or her leadership skills. Teens can become a 4-H teen leader in two general ways: by developing their personal leadership skills and/or by completing a 4-H teen leadership project. Teens can develop their leadership skills in many ways and places. They can attend Kettunen Center workshops, regional events like Leadermete, statewide events like 4-H Exploration Days or 4-H Capitol Experience, or national events like Citizenship Washington Focus and National 4-H Congress. Teens can also participate in web-based learning to develop their skills. Most importantly, teens can personally develop leadership in their community and club by putting what they have learned into action. Commonly, teen leaders take on more responsibility in their club, work closely with adults and 4-H staff, serve on committees or councils, and/or help younger 4-H ers in their project areas. How do I complete the Muskegon County 4-H Teen Leadership Project? How to become a designated teen leader with Muskegon County 4-H: Pick up a Muskegon County 4-H Teen Leader Project from the 4-H office or download the project online at: Discuss your interest in completing the 4-H Teen Leader Project with a parent or guardian. Complete the Teen Leader Commitment Form found in the project packet. Turn this form in to the MSU Extension Office. Use the Tips for developing your leadership plan included in the Teen Leader Project packet to begin brainstorming what your leadership project might entail. Meet with your 4-H club leader(s) to discuss your interest in completing the Teen Leader Project, and agree on your role and responsibilities in the 4-H club. Complete the Teen Leadership Planning Template with your club leader(s). As you complete your Teen Leadership Project, save any photos, flyers, or other information that will help create a well-rounded project presentation. It is always important to set goals for any project. Complete the Setting Project Goals Chart with your leader. If you attend any leadership training, please document it on the 4-H Teen Leader Training Chart. You are welcome to make the chart bigger if needed especially for the what did you learn, section. 2
3 Keep track of all the activities you do as a teen leader. The 4-H Teen Leader Activity Chart will help keep you organized in this area. Complete the Teen Leadership Project Reflection and Self-Evaluation forms when your project is complete. If you complete multiple tasks in one year, one set of forms for each project you complete in a year should be submitted. Ask an adult leader to complete the Adult Leader Evaluation when project is complete. Develop a portfolio during the Teen Leader Project as a way to display what you have accomplished. Refer to the 4-H Teen Leader Portfolio instructions in the packet. After successful completion of the Teen Leader Project portfolio, you will be designated as a teen leader with Muskegon County 4-H and recognized as such at the annual Muskegon County 4-H Recognition Banquet. You may also apply for the Muskegon County 4-H Teen Leader of the Year Award. 3

17 Adults and Teen Leaders as a Team: Responsibilities of the Club Leader The adult advisor plays an important role in the success of a teen s leadership development. At times they are a coach, at times, an advisor and at times, a mentor. The working relationship between the adult and teen is as important as the completion of the activity that the teen leader chooses. Teens need the support of a caring adult who challenges and supports their activities and guides them in the process. The 4-H advisor or leader plays a critical role in the 4-H Teen Leader Program. Why do we have Teen Leaders? Teen leaders are important because they: Can relate well with their peers and with younger 4-H members. Can learn leadership by practicing. Have fresh ideas and lots of opinions to share. Can be valuable resources. Have the time and energy to increase the number of club activities and events. Are capable of, and willing to accept responsibility. Are enthusiastic, positive and creative. What are the goals of 4-H Teen Leadership? Encourage older youth to remain in 4-H. Provide older youth with an opportunity to demonstrate and practice their skills. Instill positive self-image in teens. Develop job and life skills in teens. Realize the importance of community service. Assist youth in developing and carrying out a plan to reach a goal. Provide opportunity for older youth to work in teams with their peers. Develop citizenship skills to create citizens for a better society. Create new volunteers for the future. Specific responsibilities with Muskegon County 4-H Teen Leaders With the Teen Leader, decide on responsibilities of the teen leader and help him/her develop a teen leadership plan early in the project year. Encourage your Teen Leader to make a list of the most pressing needs of their club, the community, and the country! A conversation with 4-H members will help your Teen Leader to identify their needs and goals. Assist your Teen Leader in setting goals for his/her responsibilities. Keep your Teen Leader informed throughout the year of the club, community, county, and state 4-H activities in which he/she may wish to participate. Encourage your Teen Leader to attend county and/or state leadership meetings and developmental committee meetings that have a bearing to their responsibility. 17
18 Help your teen leader get acquainted with local and county resources that are available. In each community there are many resource people who would be flattered if asked to assist with a specific portion of a 4-H project or activity. Schedule periodic meetings with your teen leader to discuss how the plan is to be carried out. It is acceptable for the teen leader to add, amend, or delete items from their original plan. They should confer with you before doing so. Secure awards information from the Muskegon MSU Extension Office and encourage your teen leader to participate in awards and recognition programs that best fit his/her interests and achievements. Career planning is a subject of intense interest to older 4-H members. Help your teen member by providing career planning information, or refer them to their school guidance counselor or 4-H Extension Educator. Encourage your Teen Leader to complete the required forms. Stress the importance of neatness, correct grammar and spelling. Adhere to deadlines. Typewritten forms are preferred. 4-H Teen Leader Training Opportunities Kettunen Center offers a variety of teen and adult leader training opportunities.
