Five European entities - HEI, Schools, SMEs, Teachers Association - from 4 different countries - Denmark, Portugal, Estonia and Italy - will jointly develop a playful resource for the education of servant leadership characteristics that address the transformative competencies aimed for XXI century curricula. The goal of the project is to raise responsible children to participate in the world, and to empower teachers and parents with an engaging educative resource and guidelines, supporting the teaching and learning process. The main output of the Play to Lead project is a board game, also available online, dedicated to children (6 to 14 yo), teachers and parents for formal, non-formal and informal learning contexts. Following the latest guidelines from the European Commission and OECD, children must be prepared to take an important role in all dimensions of life – socially, economically and digitally. The transformative competencies (OECD, 2018) are related with the need of educating children to: - Create new value – “innovation springs not from individuals thinking and working alone, but through co-operation and collaboration with others to draw on existing knowledge to create new knowledge.” - Reconcile tensions and dilemmas – “Individuals will need to think in a more integrated way that avoids premature conclusions and recognises interconnections.” - Taking responsibility – “the concept of self-regulation, which involves self-control, self-efficacy, responsibility, problem solving and adaptability.” Thus, partners propose to explore the servant leadership model to develop the Play to Lead Board Game, engaging children, teachers and parents in a playful path to nurture six main transformative characteristics: authenticity, humility, stewardship, interpersonal acceptance, providing direction, empowerment (van Dierendonck, 2011).
