The workshop was organized to improve leadership skills so as to promote good governance.

During the workshop, Mr. Wepngong said the interaction Leadership program provides opportunities for working differently by challenging the ways we think and act by focusing on: Appreciation, Goodwill and Good intent, Be the change to enable others, the power of affirmatively disruptive Questions and Valuing the magic of Difference. He then went on to state the two challenges of Appreciative Inquiry which consist of having a responsibility to honor our successes and  learning best from what is working. The participants were also drilled on the chaos in communication and the TICing Model.  It was on this note that Mrs. Mbome went further to describe the factors ticking in the head and/or mind of an individual when he/she is in a conversation with another which include: T-Time, I-Internal and C- Context.

        It is worth mentioning that the participants took part in in-and-outdoor exercises which had as objective to portray the surfacing of leaders in a group, essence of team work and communication, bad leadership, decision making within a group, etc. At the end of the workshop, the Vice principal Mrs. Christy ENAW, who also took part in the training urged the organizers to organize similar trainings at the start of each academic year for the graduating batch of the school. She said it will give the students a sense of maturity in their thinking and actions, and also spur them to be creative and proactive in all school activities. She also appreciated the in and out door exercises which also fell in line with part of their training for these student teachers, who are equipped to start teaching in the institutions where they will be posted by the government..
