COBIS Student Leadership Weekend 2016

 

 

Student Leaders Take Part in Inspirational Leadership Weekend in Madrid

More than 30 students travelled to Madrid to take part in the 3rd COBIS/King's Group Student Leadership Weekend at the beginning of October 2016.

The students, most of whom hold leadership positions in their schools such as Head Boy or Girl, travelled from COBIS schools in Egypt, Qatar, Portugal, Romania, France, Slovakia and Spain.

 

The student leaders had an unrivalled opportunity to participate in interactive sessions with trainers and motivational speakers. The sessions focussed on personal branding, public speaking skills, creative problem solving and more. Students investigated their digital footprint, explored leadership in social media, discussed how to change their mind-sets, and wrote letters to their future selves. They also enjoyed a sightseeing tour of Madrid, a delicious tapas lunch, and a murder mystery evening!

COBIS would like to thank colleagues at King's Group for making this event such a success.

More photos and updates can be seen on the King's Group twitter page and videos on the COBIS YouTube channel.
