Communication Skills in Leadership

Our new Young Women's Lesson pages have been updated to match the seven-step planning process found in the LDS Young Women's Teaching Guidebook from LDS.org. Yes, it's awesome!

Please share your ideas and experiences teaching this lesson in the comments section!!!

STEP ONE: Identify the Principle(s) to be Taught

First determine the principles to be taught in your lessons so you'll have a clear focus. Determine the principles by reading the objective found at the beginning of each lesson and the section headings. Look for keywords that show what the principles will be taught.

Now read the scriptures associated with your lesson, noting how they relate to the principles you noticed earlier. Don't skip the scriptures!

You may download and read YW Manual 2, Lesson 48 : Communication Skills in Leadership directly from LDS.org.

STEP TWO: Determine the Needs of your Students

Prayerfully consider the needs of each invidual in your class. You may ask yourself:

  • How can the principles in Communication Skills in Leadership be taught effectively to the young women in my class?
  • What does [insert student's name] need to know about these principles?
  • How will this lesson help [insert student's name] with the problems she is facing?

STEP THREE: Locate Resources

In addition to the lesson manual, you have access to Church Magazines like the New Era, Ensign, Scriptures to help you plan.

New Era Resource Guide Materials

The Resource Guide is published by the Church in the Conference editions of the Ensign and has information to supplement LDS Young Women lessons. You may find lists of questions, links to articles, additional scripture references, or Personal Progress ideas. Beside each will be instructions on using them in conjunction with a lesson. Following are the Resource Guide materials for this lesson.

L. Tom Perry, A Solemn Responsibility to Love and Care for Each Other,  Liahona, June 2006, 56; Ensign, June 2006, 88. Use points from the article to supplement the lesson section We Can All Be Leaders.

M. Russell Ballard, O Be Wise,  Liahona and Ensign, Nov. 2006, 17. Discuss the six ways we can serve both wisely and well as part of Leadership Is Love in Action.

STEP FOUR: Prepare Spiritually

Prepare youself spiritually for your lesson by praying for the students in your class. When seeking help from Heavenly Father in particularly difficult situations, you may fast or attend the temple for additional inspiration. The LDS Young Women's Teaching Guidebook also suggests leaders should make efforts to mend relationships or repent of misdeeds to help yourself get in the right frame of mind for gospel teaching. You should be obey the commandments and read your scriptures daily to help you prepare to receive inspiration whenever it may come.

Elder Richard G Scott has said, "Will you pray for guidance in how to have truth sink deeply into the minds and hearts of your [young women] so as to be used throughout life?"

And don't forget the importance of your example: "During youth activities, your example is your most powerful teaching tool. You teach young people through your actions, your casual conversation about others, your solutions to problems, the language you use, and the way you extend yourself to others." (Teaching, No Greater Call)

STEP FIVE: Engage

Now that you have a good feel for how you will teach your lesson, it's time to find ways to make the lesson engaging for your students. Some questions you may ask include:

  • What personal experiences have I had regarding the principles in this lesson that I could appropriately share with my class?
  • What thought-provoking questions will I ask?
  • What methods will I use?

You may also choose to supplement your lesson with some of the following teaching methods, including the products, handouts, clipart, and object lessons listed below:

STEP SEVEN: Testify

What is your personal testimony regarding this principle? Be sure to share it with the students in your class during your lesson. President Thomas S. Monson taught: "You do not need to go to [the Holy Land] to walk where Jesus walked. You need simply to walk through the door of your classroom, walk to the front of your class, and bear your testimony--as did Jesus of old--that God our Heavenly Father lives, that the gospel of Christ is a reality, that is has the answers for the problems which vex our young people."
