LTP/OCP

 

Welcome to the Region F Leadership Training Program page. We are John & Sharon Simonick, the Region F Trainers, and our mission is to provide FREE training in various aspects of GWRRA. We provide information to the "curious", provide training in leadership skills to support those that want to get a little more involved in GWRRA, and to those that simply want to improve their personal leadership skills. Please look through the LTP Curriculum to see what seminars are of interest to you!

The seminars in these programs are offered ala-cart, and each seminar is approximately 45 minutes. There are program cards available on which you can track the seminars taken in each program. Upon completion of a program, you are provided a hangar bar which can be hung on a Leadership Training Division pin (Example of "Horizon Program" hanger bar below)

The Horizon Program is (in our opinion) one of the best offerings GWRRA provides. It is extremely useful to Officers and Staff, and is also of great value to anyone who will ever hold a position of leadership, whether at work, in social groups, as a parent/grandparent, volunteer organizations, etc. Everyone is a leader in some aspect of their life, therefore, we recommend that all GWRRA members take advantage of this wonderful program. Within the listed modules, the topics include motivating others, presentation skills, communication skills, and teambuilding skills. The “Hands-On Application” involves breakout sessions where the skills learned are reinforced through application of the skills in a supportive environment. Unlike all of the other Programs, the Horizon Program is presented all at once over a day and a half, typically on Saturday and half a day Sunday. Upon completion of the program, and in addition to special bonds created with classmates, you will receive a LTP Pin and Hanger Bar like the one below.

 

Contents of the Horizon Program are:
 

  • Program Overview
  • Team Building & Personal Profile
  • Expectations
  • Communications
  • Effective Meetings & Events
  • The Officer Spouse Couple
  • Hands-On Application
