As a professional school counselor, what might be the benefits of running counseling groups in your school? How might you explain these benefits to your school's administration and school board in order to advocate for more time to spend doing group counseling?

How might you define the terms "leader" and "leadership" in your own words? What qualities do you consider essential for a group leader? In addition, please describe a group leader who has personally influenced you and how you were affected. What were the group dynamics like in that group?
