Youth engaged in ropes experience

Church groups, school leadership programs, summer enrichment activities, college preparatory programs are some of the types of youth focused organizations that have benefited from the programming offered at the TeamLeadership Center.  

The high ropes-low ropes course can be the  focus of one or more days of activities. We do offer other on site programming opportunities.  One such opportunity is “Mission Possible” a compass orienteering course design to familiarize the novice student with the use of a compass, pacing to measure distance and problem solving in a team context on our fifty acre "practice field".

All of our youth programming includes activities that are designed first and foremost to be fun but to also teach very practical “hard skills“ such as proper belaying techniques to keep someone safe while climbing, safety procedures and proper use of equipment, compass use and map reading. As participants are having fun and learning very practical skills we work on “soft skills” such as improving  communication skills, recognizing multiple learning styles, building trust, improving problem solving skills through the use of real challenges that require tactical and strategic planning and execution. Our program is designed to demonstrate the power of collaborative effort and the strength of diversity.

TeamLeadership Center also offers a Myers-Briggs Type Indicatorâ personality inventory workshop for groups of individuals sixteen (16) years of age or older. We use the MBTIâ as a tool for better understanding our individual roles in the teambuilding and leadership activities we do and also the team dynamics.
