ICTM 11/20/22, Sunday Recap: Culture

One day being Sixtyone will be considered cool and you will be responsible for that.

Objective

Students need to understand that being Sixtyone (People like us do things like this) is a culture. How we do things is based on our Academy Code and beliefs.

Expected outcome

Please review the student’s post for today’s session.

We want the students to begin to look at being Sixtyone with a sense of belonging and pride. We want them to embrace our culture—playing from the hole back and walking the course while carrying our bags—as things like this that young Sixtyone golfers do.

Additionally, they have to grasp that their actions are important to the perceptions of the entire group. They can help build Sixtyone culture. They can build on the heritage Sixtyone golfers left them, and establish a legacy for the Sixtyone golfers that come after them.

One day being Sixtyone will be considered cool. Each Academy student in the own way will be responsible for making it that way.
