Training The High Zeta Team

Within each chapter of Lambda Chi Alpha, the group of officers are called the High Zeta.

As president, High Alpha, I felt my primary responsibility was to help my High Zeta team be the best they could be... truly believing that a strong leader surrounds himself or herself by even stronger supporters.

I compiled this manual to help condense many of the things I had learned over the years into one piece that could help strengthen my team and hopefully those who followed. It was used as a guide for a one day learning and strategic planning retreat, thereby teaching new skills and putting them to immediate use.

Not surprising, those skills that I felt were valuable for my fraternity team, are the same skills I seek for myself and my work teams today... creative thinking and idea generation, building positive habits, creating a strong belief window, developing leadership, team building, planning, developing problem solving skills and tools (Cause & Effect analysis, check sheets, NGT, flowcharts, Force Field Analysis), effective meeting skills, and of course, stress management.
