Inspire the Leaders of Tomorrow – Be a Workshop Facilitator
Being a Washington Business Week workshop facilitator or speaker is a great way to make an impact on the future leaders of tomorrow. Share your experience and expertise with high school students who are eager to learn.
Facilitator
Supporting a WBW created workshop, you’ll jump in for 1 – 2 hours to help students as they learn from a hands-on experience.
Some of our workshops include:
- Leadership Styles – You’ll take on the role of a specific type of leader, to help students understand when various types of leaders can be valuable and when they can be a hinderance.
- Networking – You’ll simply be yourself at a mock cocktail hour, allowing students to learn networking skills.
Being a workshop facilitator is a great way to help shape the next generation of leaders and give back.
