Gettysburg Leadership Seminar Reflection By: Lisa Au & Sharaka Berry

CommunicationCommunication: The act or process of using words, sounds, signs, or behaviors to express or exchange information or to express your ideas, thoughts, feelings, etc., to someone else

Great Leaders Communicate ClearlyFigure out the most effective way

people like to communicate.

Follow-up on what you’ve communicated, and listen to others to see if they have understood what you’ve communicated.

Being thorough/flexible so you are understood.

Jeb StuartLt. General of the Northern Virginian Army

Great reconnaissance missions

Resulted in successful raids and defense strategies against the Union

His failure to report Union activity and stay in contact with General Lee resulted in the Confederates with little intelligence

Our communicationKept in touch to make sure we were

on time

Expressed our ideas to each other and made sure we both understood each other

Listen in small group and reported ideas to larger group

Shared own experiences

Classmates CommunicationGroups was always on time as a

result of communications between “Battlefield Buddies”

Listening to and checking in with one another

Not being afraid to disagree

Discussing ideas and giving thorough explanations

Bring Leadership Back to CampusListening, flexibility/open mind, continued communication, awareness of how you communicate
