Leadership is not about giving orders, it’s about working with others, solving problems and making wise decisions. Management games are a great way to teach students these skills. Here are 6 simple and fun management games to build leadership skills in students.
In this team game students use old newspapers to build the tallest tower—teaches teamwork, planning, and resource use.
Let students be the teacher for a short time—it builds confidence, speaking skills and decision making.
Organise a pretend market where students sell handmade bookmarks or snacks (like murmura laddoos)—teaches budgeting, communication, and responsibility.
Give groups a list of small tasks to finish in a limited time—this teaches how to prioritise and stay focused.
Divide the class into groups and have friendly debates on topics like “Is uniform necessary?” to build leadership and listening skills.
Let students plan a small school event like a craft display or food stall (with poha, fruit chaat or chaas)—this teaches planning, teamwork, and decision making.
