Lessons from the Driver's Seat

LESSONS FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT

Students will learn life skills and leadership lessons through the role of the driver.

Great drivers focus. Teaching young people the importance of focus is a critical skill set.
Great drivers make split second decisions.
Great drivers practice. Honing your skills, whether they are driving, selling or recruiting is an important part of personal development.
Great drivers are not great on their own. Despite the accolades for the driver, it is really a team effort. The lesson here is when to be a leader and knowing when to be part of the team.
Great drivers negotiate great contracts. Drivers know how to negotiate and when moving to another team makes sense.
Great drivers understand branding. They know and create a personal brand. What is your product? What are your brand attributes? How do you envision taking "you" to market? Where are you placed on the competitive shelf space?
