Through Girl Scouting, girls become leaders in their daily lives and prepare for their bright futures too! The Girl Scout Cookie Program provides an important ingredient for leadership by helping girls develop five key skills:
- Goal setting: Girl Scouts learn to set goals and create plans to achieve them
- Decision making: Girl Scouts learn to make decisions on their own and as part of a team.
- Money management: Girl Scouts learn how to create a budget and handle money.
- People skills: Girl Scouts learn to interact with customers and build confidence.
- Business ethics: Girl Scouts learn to act ethically in business and in life.
The Girl Scout Cookie Program helps girls develop leadership skills and prepare for their futures. For example, when selling cookies, girls learn to:
- Decide where and when to sell
- Market their sale
- Decide what to do with their earnings
- Take cookie orders
- Handle customers' money
- Talk to, listen to, and work with people
