The Rewards of Commitment.

While it should not be the primary motivation for applying to be a GO CO leader, it is true that great rewards are promised for those who successfully lead others. As a GO leader you will enjoy the results of your hard work and service to your campus and world.

We have found that our leaders benefit in the following ways. They realize that the decisions they make today impact tomorrow, they grow as leaders, they inspire our generation, they connect with other big thinkers, they participate in adventure, and they strengthen their resume.

See below for details.

Impact tomorrow with the decisions you make today .

Even the littlest of actions have major ramifications on this world. Leading an adventure may impact just one person to take action again next weekend. That person may rub off on their friends and even grow up and raise a family that does the same. Your peers are watching. Your actions will inspire and challenge them. 

Grow as a leader.

The GO CO does not believe that people are born leaders. People must work to develop their different strengths and talents. Leadership is a life long study. Being a leader for the GO CO will give you real life experiences to practically apply and evaluate many of the proven universal leadership principles. These leadership lessons will help you lead adventures for GO CO and in all areas of life.

Inspire a generation.

We hope that as you learn and lead you will share your experiences with us so together we can make The GO Company a movement that truly engages students to make creative ideas come to life as they adventure into their outside communities, explore their surroundings, challenge their strengths, and transform their world.

Connect with other big thinkers.

Walking with others who challenge themselves further helps you to challenge yourself. We need each other to grow. Think through and listen to ideas, encourage others to go for it, and help others when they need help.

Participate in adventure.

Some of these challenges you choose will launch you and your peers off on some crazy explorations. You can hike mountains, climb waterfalls, surf the waves, meet new people, take crazy road trips, and beyond. Visit our website, www.thegoco.com to see some of the past adventures and ideas for future trips.
