Leadership Training Session
To quote Martin Luther King Jr., "A genuine leader is not a searcher of consensus, but a
molder of consensus."
St Agnes PU College organised a leadership training program on Saturday, 28 June
2025, for the newly inducted student cabinet and class representatives under the expert
guidance of Mr Elson D'Souza, a multi-talented professional and state-certified resource
person Known for his zestful energy and enthusiasm, he has actively inspired and
mentored scores of youth leaders.
The training program aimed to equip student leaders with the essential skills and
knowledge required to effectively lead their peers and manage their responsibilities
within the college environment. Mr Elson's engaging and interactive style made the
session highly impactful and meaningful for the participants.
Mr Elson exhorted the student council to lead with vision, creativity, and integrity. He
emphasized that resilience, mindfulness, and strategic thinking are the hallmarks of great
leadership.
The session focused on grooming students into competent leaders through a series of
collaborative and well-designed activities and stories that fostered trust, empathy,
communication, and teamwork. He advised them to be inspired rather than influenced.
He also emphasized the 8-8-8 hour rule and exhorted the young leaders to convert their
weaknesses into strengths and challenges into opportunities.
The Leadership Training programme was a great success, leaving a lasting impact on the
student leaders and equipping them with the agility and finesse necessary to make a
positive difference in their roles.
Vice-Principal Sr Janet Sequeira welcomed and introduced Mr Elson D'Souza, while
Student President Mansi Rajpurohit delivered the vote of thanks, expressing gratitude for
the insightful and uplifting session.
