My impressions on Group Leadership Training On the 1st – 7th of March 2007 I was a participant of Group Leadership Training, which took place in Chisinau, Republic of Moldova and was organized by AVI-Moldova. During this training I've got new theoretical information about leadership, motivation, team building, communication, conflict management and practical skills how to do presentations, to communicate with different people and to develop own leadership qualities.
As for me all of workshops were organized in a good way, they combined lectures, brain storms, discussions and practical work in small and big groups.
These groups were different every time, so it was possible to know all participants better and to improve our communication skills. We had a lot of active energizers, reflecting and relaxing exercises, which helped to work successfully.
Our trainers were very experienced, flexible and tolerant. I really liked that they communicated with us not only during workshops but also in the rest time. There were no conflicts in the group because participants had a high level of self-motivation and as well were motivated by trainers.
In general all the participants, trainers and prep-team founded a very positive atmosphere in the group, and I took part in this training (in workshops and intercultural events as well) with a great pleasure.
We took care of keeping in plus and positive with tea and good discussions. 12 activists met in Artemovsk during the week-end of 24-25 of February, to discuss latest developments, share impressions of Poznan Feedback Seminar, and make planning for 2007 and behind.

On December 31st, the last day of the year, a group of volunteers prepared some games and some presents (with donation of fruits from a local businessman), and went to the boarding school for mentally disabled children to visit 10 orphans. The legend was, that we met "Ded Moroz", as Santa Klaus is called here, and he asked us to congratulate the children on this special day.
We had some funny masks and balloons to create festive atmosphere. The children turned out to be older than we expected, and were shy at the beginning, but still eager to play easy and funny games we prepared for them. Then we gave them presents, albums and water-color sets, fruits and sweets. We ended up playing football with balloons, they all exploded as a result, but it was fun. Details...
