The Leadership Litmus Test: Interviewing for Camp’s Next Great Leaders
Recommended Audience
Type of Course
Core Competency
Too often, interviews default to surface-level questions that miss what really matters; whether someone can truly lead at camp. And when the wrong person gets hired, it doesn’t just hurt the team — it impacts the entire camp experience. This recorded webinar flips the script on traditional interviewing and equips managers with strategies to identify real leadership potential. From asking sharper questions to spotting red flags, learn how to move beyond “nice” or “reliable” and uncover whether a candidate has the adaptability, courage, strengths, and presence to thrive in the fast-paced, unpredictable world of camp.
