Ground Rules for Participation:
*
We are diverse: I will respect other's beliefs, politics, needs, and styles.
I understand that Leadership Geauga is a safe place to gather with your peers and develop personally and professionally while learning more about our beautiful county; it is not a place to push politics and religious beliefs.
I will not use cell phones in class. I understand the Executive Director's cell phone number will be given out and is to be used for emergencies.
I will listen and share ideas. If I am a talker, I will try to listen more. If I am quiet, I will try to speak up more.
I will attend every Leadership Geauga program day and be there for the entire day (generally from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.).
I will fully participate on my planning team, which will meet six times to plan our issue day.
I understand that Orientation and Retreat are mandatory.
I understand to graduate Leadership Geauga, I cannot miss more than two class days.
I will serve as a resource and support to my fellow class members
On occasion, I may be required to prepare ahead of time for a class day and will complete this assignment to the best of my ability.
I understand that in facing these realities of the county, not all of my experiences will be pleasant and pretty. But I am committed to learning more about our county.
I will make a payment towards my tuition before Orientation
I understand that tuition is non-refundable
