The Preparation of GLOW Leadership Academy 2016

By Margarita Kaleynska | Chair of the Board

The preparation of Girls Leading Our World (GLOW) Leadership Academy 2016 continues actively. The staff team of the Academy, selected in November, 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 four months in order to improve their presentation skills and knowledge of the topics discussed during the Academy.

The staff members, girls 16 to 18 years old from 8 different towns and cities around Bulgaria, will be responsible for leading group activities for this year’s campers as well supporting the overall organization of the Academy.

Viktoria Kostova, one of the staff members, shares on her motivation to become a voluntary trainer in GLOW Leadership Academy: “Now, after the GLOW Leadership Academy 2015, I feel like I have walked a long path to myself and I have grown. I have more discipline and independence and I am far more self-reliant. I improved my leadership skills and skill at team working and communicating, also my public speaking and the ability to properly and effectively manage my time in order to go through the obstacles with ease and to enlist my priorities simultaneously I was having so much fun. It is unbelievable how fulfilled I am feeling and how satisfied with all THIS I am. It is a miracle, you should trust me. I want to develop, to make a big change, to help and to give support.(…) My biggest passion is helping others grow and lifting them up. I strongly believe that if a person wants to achieve his/her aims in life, he should not only devote diligent efforts to his purpose, but in every caught opportunity his most important obligation is to try to support others and give them strength and hope. I want to share my experience with these young GLOW girls and to teach them about contemporary topics they are concerned with.”
