10、y might spend the$3,000 to buy books,supplies,and advertising for the program.“Brian,”said Mandy,“you are the financial expertyou should present the plan.”“Thanks,but I get so nervous when I talk to a group,”Brian said.“You and Chris can present to the committee.You two are the talking experts.No qu
11、estion.”And everyone laughed.4A Successful Year“Okay,lets get started,”Ms.Maybry said to the Kids Company Leaders Team(KCLT).Kids Company(Kids Co.)was a national program of school companies run by students.The Adams School Kids Co.had 93 members from six grades.The Leaders Team was made up of five s
12、tudents who were elected each year.Ms.Maybry was their advisor.Were in Business Level R 17Elizabeth collected the ballots and most of the club stayed to see which project would be voted the favorite.As it turned out,the after-school reading program won by a landslide.“I guess everyone agreed that ou
13、r school could use the money to buy students more books,”Brian said.“Or maybe they thought the music video wouldnt sell,”Mandy suggested.“Maybe they thought helping parents needing baby-sitting would be too hard for students to organize,”said Chris.Were in Business Level R 5“Its been a successful ye
14、ar,”Ms.Maybry began.Adams Kids Co.had exceeded its goal for the year.The members had built the school garden,and opened a school store,and collected coats for homeless people.“You did so well.I wrote to the Kids Co.state committee about your success.”Ms.Maybry explained.16The Company MeetingThe day
15、of the meeting arrived.The members of the KCLT dressed in their most business-like clothes.The club met in the school multi-purpose room.“Are you guys ready?”Brian asked Mandy and Chris.Mandy nodded her head.Brian thought it was the first time he saw Mandy answer without words.Mandy and Chris gave t
16、heir presentation.The whole club applauded.The students were glad to be included in the decision-making process.The ballots were passed out.6Important News“I have important news,”Ms.Maybry stated.“Cool!”Mandy interrupted,always ready to talk.“As members of the KCLT,you have been invited to present a
17、 project to the national Kids Cmittee.If the committee members approve your plan,they will award$3,000 to fund your project,”Ms.Maybry continued.“Whoa!”said Brian,the math whiz and Kids Co.finance guy.“We could really be in business.”“Yes,”said Ms.Maybry cautiously,“but you need a plan.”Were in Busi
18、ness Level R 15By Thursday afternoon,the list of projects was complete.The entire KCLT agreed that the three projects were supported by the Kids Co.mission statement and were good enough to present at the club meeting.The ballot was complete.The projects were:An after-school reading program for kids
19、 and grown-ups.A music video for sale to promote the school tutoring program.A baby-sitting program for the kids of adults who are going back to school.Were in Business Level R 7“Look over the requirements,”Ms.Maybry advised.“Agree on a project to propose.”Jason and Elizabeth began reading and takin
20、g notes.Chris and Mandy started talking about how exciting this opportunity was.Brian was figuring out how much time they had to complete the project.14Mandy and Chris began preparing their presentation to the Adams Kids Co.members.First,they would review last years successes.Then,they would read th
21、e Kids Co.mission statement and tell the club members about the invitation they had received from the Kids Co.state committee.At the end of their presentation,they would talk about the proposed ideas and pass out ballots for voting.Brian was preparing a letter inviting all of the members to meet aft
22、er school on the following Monday.After that,he would design the ballots using a computer program.8“Lets start a bookmobile for preschoolers,”said Brian.“How about a baby-sitting program to help adults going back to school?”offered Chris.“Or a music video with a message,”Mandy added.“Wait a minute,y
23、ou guys!”Elizabeth interrupted.“Arent we a team?We have to decide together.”“Looks like were going to have to decide on a way to decide,”Jason observed.Were in Business Level R 13The team divided up the tasks.Brian,Mandy,and Chris began brainstorming project ideas.They wanted to start with a list of
24、 potential ideas and end up with no more than three final ideas to put on the ballot.They had a lot of discussing to do.Elizabeth and Jason would check that each idea supported the Kids Co.mission statement as they put together the information for the presentation.Were in Business Level R 9 The lead
25、ers stopped what they were doing.They sat looking at each other not sure what to do next.Again,Mandy was the first to speak.“How are we ever going to pick a project?”she said.“We could put all of the projects in a hat and pick one,“Chris suggested.“That doesnt seem right,”Jason said.“We were elected
26、 to lead.We should be doing more than just throwing ideas in a hat.”12The team leaders decided they would present their ideas to all the members of the Adams Kids Co.Then they would ask the members to vote on their project presentation ideas.They would present the members favorite idea to the commit
27、tee.The kids shared their plan with Ms.Maybry.“I think thats a great plan,”Ms.Maybry said.“It shows leadership to ask the members of the company to participate in your decision.”10Making a Decision“What do the rules say?”Mandy asked.Elizabeth explained that the project had to follow the Kids Co.miss
28、ion statement,and the plan had to show how the money would be used.Jason pulled out the Kids Co.mission statement.He read:“Kids Co.participants work together to learn and use the ways of business to run successful projects that benefit the school and community in a positive way.”Were in Business Lev
29、el R 11“How will we choose?”said Chris.“We cant draw straws or play Rock,Paper,Scissors.”“We have to operate like a business,”Elizabeth agreed.“How do we do that?”asked Brian.“We ask the people who elected us,”suggested Jason.“What a great idea,”said Mandy.“Well present our ideas to our stockholders,like a real corporation.”Mandy could find the drama in any situation.
