Leadership Statement Template

Slide Content

The slide is titled "Leadership Statement Template" and provides a concise template for articulating leadership expectations, acceptance, and encouragement. The slide includes three statements: "I expect ... write your expectation here," which prompts the leader to define their expectations; "I accept... write what you accept here," which serves as an area to express acceptance parameters; and "I encourage... write what you encourage of," which offers a section to motivate and endorse certain behaviors or goals.

Graphical Look

• The slide has a large, high-quality image of a lighthouse at dusk as its background, with the top half of the slide showing a night sky with stars.
• The title "Leadership Statement Template" is prominently displayed at the top in large white text.
• To the right, there is a white dialogue bubble graphic with rounded corners, containing placeholder text for the leadership statements.
• Inside the dialogue bubble, there are bullet points, each followed by a line of instruction in black text which serves as a guide for adding personalized content.
• There is a circle with a document icon that partially overlaps both the image and the dialogue bubble, creating a visual link between the background and the content.
• The background image transitions from the dark night sky to a beautifully captured twilight horizon where the lighthouse stands, which adds a metaphorical connection to leadership and guidance.

The slide uses a visually striking contrast between the calming image of nature and the clear, structured placeholder text area. The choice of a lighthouse as a background element subtly reinforces the theme of leadership and direction.

Use Cases
