The throughline? Trust. Through transparency about decisions, honest follow-through, and prioritizing their own mental health, leaders model the kind of steadiness they hope to see in their staff. They explore tools like 360-degree feedback, empathetic language (“the story I’m telling myself…”), and giving credit generously—simple practices that build credibility and confidence across a team.The conversation also challenges leaders to take off their “admin goggles,” remembering that frontline staff don’t see the full picture. By holding high standards, communicating the why, and leading with empathy instead of ego, supervisors don’t just manage people—they develop them.Best Practice for Leadership TrainingFrom Carrie Lawson - Camp C,At the Women in Camp Summit, Carrie Lawson from Camp C shared that their team has shifted from using the term “inclusion” to “camper support.” The change helps remove stigma that can label certain campers as different and instead recognizes that every child has unique needs. At Camp C, the camper support team acts as project managers for problem-solving and support across camp—serving all campers, not just those with a diagnosis or identified difference.Special Guest:Kate Taylor, Consultant - Stephane Richard Development ConsultingYour Hosts:Beth Allison, Camp Consultant - Go Camp ProGabrielle Raill, Camp Director - Camp OuareauRuby Compton, Chief Exploration Officer - Ruby OutdoorsThanks to our sponsor…UltraCampImagine camp registration software that actually gives you MORE time for what you love - CAMP!
