Take the time to work through the at least two of following three exercises. Although they may be similar to one another, each exercise will allow you to look at one aspect of the leader differently. When possible, you may want to do your work online and then print it. Or, you may choose to print each worksheet and then complete it by hand. Whatever your choice, once you’ve finished each exercise, remember to print a copy of your work for your TRY-IT Personal Leadership Portfolio.
Have fun!
| Prior Life Experiences Exercise 1: | |
| Historic Leaders Are Everywhere In Every Time! | |
| Get comfortable, close your eyes, and relax. Think about the historical leader you named in your journal. What time period was the person from? Now, think about where that person lived — another country, in your neighborhood, in the desert? Envision the person doing what made him or her a leader. | |
In the space provided, jot down three words or short phrases that describe what you saw. |

| Historical Leader Mosaic | |
Using any printed material (letters, newspapers, magazines, newsletters, etc.) locate and cut out any words that you think describe a leader. You can also use names and pictures of historical leaders if they are available. Paste the words or images onto a piece of construction paper to make a Historical Leadership Mosaic. Use markers and crayons to fill in any spaces or draw a picture to add to the mosaic. When you are done you can frame your work and keep it to remind you of historical leaders and their traits. |

| Campaign Central | |
Stop for a moment and think about a particular world leader. Once you have chosen a leader, pretend you are a campaign manager trying to get your leader elected into the Leadership Hall of Fame. Make a campaign using poster board and markers. Be sure to include a short slogan about why that person was a leader. In the space provided, name the attributes and characteristics you considered to make the slogan and sign. What made or made him/her a leader? Do you share some of those same attributes? |
