MIDDLE LEVEL

LEADERSHIP “KICK” OFF!

“The Leadership Academy was great!

I figured it would be someone lecturing to me

about what I needed to do to be a better leader,

but it was games that could be easily played.

Games that you could tell had a meaning.

After being there for the first half hour

it no longer seemed like something I had

to do, but that I was there because I had

the potential to be or do something great

and someone wanted to help

me realize I could do it.”

LEADERSHIPP “KICK”

KICK IT IN® this year at the Business Professionals

of America National Leadership Conference with

the BPA Middle Level Leadership “Kick” Off!

You’ll interact with every junior high

and middle school student

attending BPA’s NLC from all over

the U.S. learning how you can

“make things happen.”

Actions do speak louder than words and we’ll be getting everyone actively involved in creating

the kind of engaging, enthusiastic, experiential learning that’s way better than just “sitting and

getting.” With interactive leadership and team-building challenges you’ll be learning about

leadership and what it takes to work with other people. Our goal is to help you “imagine, believe

and become” the leader you want to become so you can KICK IT IN and TAKE THE LEAD!
