The preparation of Girls Leading Our World (GLOW) Leadership Academy 2015 continues actively. In November 2014, 14 new staff members were selected among more than 30 applicants all of whom are GLOW Leadership Academy alumnae. The selected girls are 16 to 18 years old and come from 7 different towns and cities around the country. They will be responsible for leading group activities for this year’s campers as well supporting the overall organization of the Academy.
At the beginning of February the new staff members underwent an intensive 3-day training that focused on group moderation, techniques for successful teamwork, working with children etc.The training was conducted by experienced Alumnae of the Academy. The new staff members will also take a number of online trainings and workshops over the next five months in order to improve their presentation skills and knowledge of the topics discussed during the Academy. The staff members will be divided in pairs - one Counselor and one Junior Counselor for each group of campers - which will allow them to help and complement each other during the Academy and also practice their teamwork skills.
