1 4-H FLASH Cowley County 4-H News March 2017 Cowley County Extension 311 E. 9th P.O. Box 538 Winfield, KS Staff: Kelsey Holcomb, 4-H Youth Development Jill Zimmerman, Ag and Natural Resources Becky Reid, Family and Consumer Leaders If you ve been reading these articles the last several months, you may be picking up a common theme. That theme is personal leadership. Over the last year, I have been introduced to the series of books on developing personal leadership authored by Dr. Tim Elmore called, Habitudes. The series has great lessons called images that help us to invest in and develop our personal leadership. What is a leader and why is developing one s personal leadership important? Is everyone a leader? Well, that depends on how you define the word, leader. If you are referring to a person who is in charge of a group or in a position of power, then, no, everyone is not a leader. Not every person is born with the natural ability to occupy the top spot in a flow chart. If leadership is defined as people pursuing a passion in their life and, in doing so, influencing others; finding an area of strength and naturally influencing others in a positive way, then yes, we can all be leaders. Each individual possesses innate strengths and talents. We master a skill or gift. Those gifts can be used to positively influence others. If leadership is about serving others in the area of our natural abilities and passions, we predictably assert influence and we do not even have to try to lead. In 4-H, we use the words, leader and leadership alot. We have project leaders, community leaders, junior leaders. We have the Leadership project and 4-H members are known for their leadership skills. We develop our leadership skills to help others through community service projects and working cooperatively within our clubs, committees and groups. Do you have to be in charge of someone or a group to be a leader? No. Being a leader is using my influence for a worthwhile cause. In this way, all 4-H members and volunteers are leaders. Because we work together to Make the Best Better, we all serve in a leadership capacity. We all possess different gifts and skills that help us in service to others. It is important that we continue to develop these gifts and use them to positively influence the world around us. I pledge my head to clearer thinking, my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to larger service, and my health to better living for my club, my community, my country and my world.

The academy is an intensive fourday educational experience designed to enhance the leadership skills and animal science knowledge of students in ninth through 12th grades. Hosted by the K-State Department of Animal Sciences and Industry and sponsored by the Livestock and Meat Industry Council, the academy s goal is to develop young leaders within the livestock industry and prepare them for a successful future in this field. The experiences gained through KASLA will help develop your understanding of the industry and ignite your potential as a young leader in agriculture, said past participant Molly Bertz of Mayview, Missouri. I would highly recommend participation. Whether you come from a strong agricultural background or are curious to learn more about the industry, KASLA is providing students with an inside view of the food production system. This year s program will take place June 14th-17th in Manhattan. The program s itinerary will feature interactive workshops, tours and faculty mentor time with animal science professors. Industry leaders will also join the participants frequently to share their knowledge and expertise. Throughout the week, participants will work in teams to evaluate current events within the animal science industry and educate others. This experience will culminate with team presentations and a closing reception on Saturday morning. The program also focuses on developing personal leadership skills through workshops and activities. One of my favorite parts of KASLA was learning more about our individual strengths through the Strengths Finder Assessment. As we learned more about our strengths, we were also able to learn how to capitalize on them and use them effectively in group settings such as the agriculture issues team project. KASLA truly developed us as leaders in the agriculture industry both inside and out," Bertz said. Only 20 students will be accepted to ensure individualized attention from counselors, professors and industry leaders. Participants will stay on campus in university housing with program staff for the duration of the event. Transportation to and from the event is the responsibility of the participant, along with a $50 deposit to reserve his or her space. The Livestock and Meat Industry Council generously provides all other sponsorships. Please contact academy director Sharon Breiner with questions at sbreiner@ksu.edu or
