Catch-up Day in Ireland

Today is a Bank (or Public) Holiday here in Ireland – one of nine official holidays for the year.  There are a number of events going on in Dublin today, but the most visible one was all the women runners participating in various runs for different charitable causes.

IMG_0824I was able to get a bike ride in at Phoenix Park.  At 1,750 acres, it’s the largest park in Europe.  Behind me in the photo is The Wellington Monument – the largest obelisk in Europe.

The students have two more days working in their start-up organizations, and then our last day will be a wrap-up and tour of NDRC.  Listed below is what remains for the students:

1.  For the presentations on June 16th, the following will be presented:

• Overview of the leader studied align with vision, values, strategy and goals.
• Overview of the leader’s team and challenges
• Leadership principles/theories utilized by the leader
• Effect of the leadership principles utilized on the team
• Strategic focus and organization design going forward
• What the leader has learned, and the advice imparted on the students?
• In addition, each team member will present a key take-away from the company project, and the most important thing learned from this course that will be used to become a more effective leader.

2.  In addition, the students are working to create a leadership model and personal charter to include:

• Challenges they’re facing (or expect to face); and the implications of the challenges
• Organizations they expect to lead
• Core leadership principles they plan to adopt (and why)
• Ways in which they will improve their potential for leading change
• The most important thing they learned from the course that they will use to become a more effective leader.

 And here again are the student’s daily blogs:
