Objective: Students will be able to explain personal mastery and why it is important for leadership.
Journal: Think of someone you know who has set goals for his/her life. How do you know that this person has goals? What effect do goals appear to have on this person’s life?
Good things.
Lesson:
Ask the students to discuss a definition for personal mastery within their small groups. When they are all done have each group share their definition to the entire class.
When everyone has shared, ask the students to come up with a list of 5 characteristics that you would need to have or do to achieve personal mastery. When every group is done, have each group share and write theirs on the board. Compare and discuss them.
Using the goal ppt, record the 5 characteristics of leaders who have achieved personal mastery in their workbooks.
When we are finished have the students complete the goal exercise in their books.
When they are finished discuss their next speech (remind: 1 minute, write it completely out, you are being video taped).
Finally, pass out a speech rubric. Explain that experts in the political world say that President Obama is a very gifted speaker and his success has a lot to do with that. So we are going to watch President Obama's speech, grade him, and take notes on what he did well. Watch the speech and grade him.
Everything went well. The students had great ideas for personal mastery and they did a great job with taking notes on President Obama's speech.
