He condensed these into eleven specific leadership competencies which he then proposed be taught in a systematic process using six developmental levels tailored to the various needs of youth as they mature. The White Stag leadership competencies are organized into three groups. The competencies are taught based on the members' and the overall group's readiness and maturity.
