WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF NYLT?
The aims of NYLT are to give each Scout or Venturer participant a basic knowledge of various leadership skills while helping them relate these skills to their own troop/team/crew responsibilities; to give them the confidence and knowledge necessary to run their unit's program; to provide an opportunity to share ideas and experiences with Scouts from other units; and of course, to have FUN.
NYLT Leadership Skills instruction includes:
- Communicating Well
- Finding Your Vision
- Setting Your Goals
- Preparing Your Plans
- Leading Yourself
- Team Development
- Solving Problems
- Resolving Conflict
- Making Ethical Decisions
- The Teaching EDGE
