style and giving others what you prefer) to the Platinum Rule (giving others what they prefer).
Recap from Session #2: Leadership Styles

5. Survey Feedback from Session #2
Fantastic
• Very engaging!
• Finding leadership leaning opportunities on the
fringe of my comfort zone
• Everything was fantastic about this day. I came with
an open mind unsure of what the day would truly be
filled with and left empowered with a knowledge of
my peers and my inner goals a little more clear.
• The facilitators, the venue, the food, the
camaraderie with small group
• Everything! I especially liked the leadership styles
discussion.
Frustrating
• Maybe a few more breaks? nothing else!
• It started off a little slow in the morning, but then
the pace picked up.
• I didn’t find anything about the day frustrating. To
some no cell service may have been frustrating,
however it was nice to disconnect for a day.
• So many voices in the main room and difficult
hearing while in small groups
• I found nothing frustrating. However if I think about
it too deeply my only comment would be that the
cheesecake slices were cut a bit too small. Lol (I
would’ve liked a larger slice of that delicious
cheesecake!)

6. Small Miracle Pitches
What: Each partner/group will have 4 minutes to pitch the local nonprofit they believe should be the Leadership 2022
beneficiary.
When: Thursday, June 9, 2022 (next session, Session #4)
How: Four-minute pitch presentation (most use power point slides) to communicate four critical elements:
• The Organization: Tell us the “who, what, and why,” i.e., who is this organization (name), what do they do (mission),
and why do they do it (why is this a relevant and timely matter to address?
• The Need: Tell us what the local nonprofit organization needs to be successful?
• The Amount: Tell us how much you hope the class will raise to meet this organization’s needs.
• The Action: Tell us how you recommend the class raise the funds.
Duration: 4 minutes
Logistics: Please bring your slides on a thumb drive (and email me your slides the day before so I have a back-up copy
for you.)
Reminder: Small Miracles is a group project designed to help you develop as a leader while also getting more informed,
connected, and engaged in the local community. The objective is to raise at least $1,500 ($500 for a local nonprofit
organization and $1,000 towards a partial scholarship for next year’s cohort.
