Students’ activity as a pedagogical clause in the formation of leadership skills

Abstract

The article considers the types of activities which serve as pedagogical clauses in the formation of students’ leadership skills. The influence of leadership skills on achievement goals, working in a team, motivation, self-management and culture of communication in the future professional actions is largely discussed in view of activities the students are exposed to. The formation of leadership traits however remains a complex undertaking at all levels and times. This complexity indeed begins with understanding and conceptualizing what leadership skills formation is all about, to understanding the technical components in the process of formation of leadership skills. The paper thus makes a deliberate attempt to examine these components via students’ activity as a pedagogical clause.
