From Counselor to Captain: Growing Leaders Season After Season

At BBYO, summer staff aren’t just seasonal hires—they’re the foundation of a thriving leadership pipeline. Through intentional training, mentorship, and multi-year growth opportunities, BBYO equips staff with the tools to lead not only during the summer but well beyond. This session will share practical strategies for investing in seasonal staff as long-term assets: building strong onboarding, creating pathways for returning staff to take on greater responsibility, and fostering a culture of feedback, reflection, and engagement year-round. Join us to learn how BBYO’s proven approach turns summer staff into committed leaders who return summer after summer and strengthen the future of our organizations.
