Questions that will be asked in this discussion are as followed:

When you think of a leader what immediate words pop into your head?

What are positive qualities that each leader should have?

What are some negative qualities about a leader?

2. Following the discussion, pre-cut string, and the six different colored beads will be passed out to each chapter president.

3. As each bead is put onto the bracelet, a meaning behind each color bead will be presented by leader of program (Sub-Regional Prez- Rebecca)

Bead Color Meanings:

Red: Love or

Green: Green Serene
