Here are some suggestions for your role as team leader-
more content facilitator than sheep dog:

1. Be familiar with your team's case assignment and how to find your site location. Print out a copy of the assignment and list of team members from the LNJ web site to bring to the seminar. Pick up gift post-it note for your speakers from me before leaving for your site.
2. Make sure all your team members are present or accounted for when leaving full class sessions, exiting the bus, etc. Begin sessions with self-introductions all around when you meet your guest speakers/ resource people. Tell them in about a minute what LNJ is, what you've done so far this year, and what you're there for.
3. Help the group stay on topic. Focus on questions at the end of your team's assignment from the LNJ web site; encourage all members of your team to participate in the discussion. Sometimes your host or guests will have a different agenda. Do all that you can-politely-to follow the LNJ agenda and assigned questions.
4. Keep track of any suggestions for improving the case, or site visit. Note any absent or additional speakers and let me know in writing, please, in the evaluation/forms box.
5. Please call me if you need help with any problems that may arise.
6. Present wrapped Post-It gifts to speakers and thank them.

Thank YOU!
