Leadership Course
Grow Mental Health are offering our group members an opportunity to take part in a certified leadership course. The focus of the course is on Personal Growth and Recovery through Leadership which will delve into the concept of leadership within the Grow Support Groups and the different ways in which all Grow members are invited to contribute to leadership within their own group.
We say in Grow Mental Health that “mental health can’t be taught, it has to be learned together”. This is a journey of self-discovery through community.
This Leadership course will teach you a lot about Grow but more importantly a lot about yourself and the unique leadership qualities that you have to offer. As you develop your own leadership, you will also experience and appreciate others as an important part of the community into which you become more deeply involved.
By the end of this course, we hope you will feel confident to participate in leadership meetings, local and regional training courses, workshops and all other growth opportunities that Grow has to offer.
The Leadership Course is divided into 6 Modules:
- Module one – Leadership as Teamwork
- Module two – Leadership by Example
- Module Three – Leadership Through Helping Others
- Module Four – Leadership by Leading a Meeting
- Module Five – Role of the Organiser
- Module Six – Role of the Recorder
The Course Format:
Each group member is assigned a mentor for the duration of this course where you can discuss your progress and any questions you have along the way.
You can complete this course at your own pace but it is recommended you complete one module where possible at a time.
The questions consist of Self-Assessment Questions (SAQ’s) where you select what you consider as the right answer and there are also exercises intended to link the principles of leadership back to personal experience.
Throughout the course, your mentor will assess your various assignments and provide feedback and upon completion of this course you will receive a Certification of Participation / Completion..
This leadership course is a great self-discovery tool and we hope you enjoy working through each module.
