Today's Assignments: 

• Module 12 Lesson 2 Notes & CYK
• Module 12 Lesson 2 Practice Activity

Module 12 Lesson 2 Notes & CYK
Lesson 2 is about commitment and how it connects to leadership.  The notes include an overview of commitment as well as specific examples of how others have led with commitment.  Here are the lesson topics:  What is commitment?, Commitments Every Leader Must Make, How Leaders Display Commitment, How Leaders Inspire Others to Commit,  How Commitment Looks in the Real World, Montgomery Bus Boycott, PETA, NOW, Greenpeace
Module 12 Lesson 2 Practice Activity - Leadership Commitment Tree
Choose the things to which you are most committed as a leader and create a visual to represent them.  It does not matter if you draw your tree or use an application to create one -- what matters is that you include your commitments and ideas for making them come true.  On the trunk of the tree, put your biggest leadership commitments. Then take the top 3 and create a branch for each one.  Label each branch and then include 3 action steps for each commitment.  Be sure you are including leadership commitments.  Once your tree is complete, write a detailed reflection explaining your leadership commitment tree.
