Leading at the Edge Wknd... wow, what a great way to bring the classroom into the natural world, good times!Leading at the Edge: This course uses the experiences & accomplishments of the 10th Mountain Division as a metaphor for values-based leadership, innovation, teamwork, & global perspective. It challenges students to work as a team & evaluate their abilities in a difficult changing mountain setting. The result is stronger bonds within the cohort, team-building skills & increased self-awareness.
My PMBA class went down south in the mtns to the Nature Place in Florrisant, CO. 3 fun-filled days of compass learning, map reading, pacing, hiking, orienteering, knot tying, rope dangling, rock climbing, repelling, team building, critical thinking, leadership training, trust building, values testing, challenging our minds, and other activities. It was a great experience to learn more about myself and others. It was a bit colder in the mtns but the sun still shined through to keep in the 60s. We learned everything we needed to on Day 1 and Day 2, so by Day 3 it was live or die (no not literally, it was a controlled environment, a ranch). As a team, they dropped us off in the woods to navigate around on our own, no more guides. There were very interesting situations and scenerios to get through. My team did great in each one! Go F n E!
