The Power of Memory:Using Tales from Childhood in Leadership Instruction
Why use children’s stories to teach lessons in Leadership?
1. It’s FUN!
2. Very few people actually do not like to be read to – and everyone can relate to children’s literature.
3. There is always a lesson of some kind in a children’s story.
4. It’s easy to turn the lesson around and make the kids do all the work.
5. There are lots of follow-up options, journal prompts, activities, and projects that can be created from one story/topic.
6. It makes them THINK.
