Students from FFA chapters across Wisconsin attended the 212° and 360° Leadership Conferences. These conferences are an activity of the National FFA Organization made possible by title sponsor Syngenta with additional support from the U.S. Army. Luke Johnson, Levi Johnson, Josh Hildreth, Tyler Chappelear, and Duane Iverson, members of the Luck FFA and 800 other FFA members from across the state attended the event November 9-10, 2018 in Stevens Point, WI. They were accompanied by ag teacher and FFA Advisor Kirsten Konder. 212° - the temperature at which water boils – focuses on taking students to the boiling point of leadership. At 211° water is extremely hot, but just one more degree gets us to the next level. The two-day 212° Leadership Conference is focused on student development and helps FFA members become aware of personal growth. FFA members attended sessions on making positive decisions, setting SMART goals and taking steps towards self-improvement. 360° - takes students full circle in terms of chapter leadership. The two-day 360° conference is focused on the importance of influence and how to become an influential leader. Students spent their time in sessions understanding the importance of influence, conducting a chapter needs assessment, crafting an influence plan for their local FFA chapter and developing a strategy to make an influence.
