JLBC Cadet Leadership Model.

The Cadet Corps teaches leadership. We strive for values-based leadership, impeccability, character, and competence in cadet duties. The Cadet Leadership Model presented here is an adaptation of the leadership model used by the US Military. It covers what a leader must be (attributes) and what a leader must be able to do (competencies). The characteristics of our model are:

• Character

• Presence

• Intellect

Cadets must be leaders of character, leaders with presence, and leaders with intellect. It would help if you used these attributes in your practice of leadership.

Character. We have a whole strand of character in leadership – it’s that important. Character is an attribute or feature that makes up and distinguishes an individual. Your character helps determine how you behave.

A true cadet behaves with honor, integrity, and many other positive characteristics.
