Invididual Development
| 2007 Individual Development VP |
The purpose of Individual Development is two-fold:
1. Personal Improvement.
Together, we're working to improve our members' family values, spiritual development and
vocational skills. In general, this area provides member development needs and wants apart
from community service, leadership development and social needs.
Examples of personal improvement include self-defense, health & fitness, CPR, first
aid, crime prevention, car care, and social skills and etiquette. The possibilities
under Personal Improvement are truly limitless!
2. Leadership Training.
Leadership training is at the very core of Jaycees. Don't believe everything you hear
about leaders being "born with leadership skills." Leadership is taught! And
Jaycees is the one organization dedicated to training young people to be better leaders!
Jaycees offers programs and workshops on leadership, project management, financial
management, time and stress management, public speaking, communications skills, and more.
We offer specific Jaycee chapter management tools or functions such as "How to
Write a Chairman's Planning Guide." In addition, through Individual Development,
you'll learn about networking, salesmanship, motivational skills or power to influence,
governmental workings, business and marketing plans, and organization building.
Check back often to the Individual Development section of this site to find out what
programs and fun projects are being run to help local chapters develop our individuals
into better people. |
