Students must organize into teams, access the challenge item online, collaborate as a team to produce an original and sustainable use for the item and pitch their invention in an engaging YouTube video presentation. The item to be used in the challenge will remain a mystery until revealed by DECA Inc. on November 10, 2016.
FIDM CHALLENGE
-Participants in the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) Challenge will translate a seasonal fashion trend into a “look” depicting the researched fashion forecast. First, participants will forecast a fashion trend for fall/winter 2016/2017. Second, participants will put together an outfit that your demographic would wear depicting this up and coming trend. Third, participants must explain why, based on their research, they believe in their trend forecast.

HERFF JONES MARKETING RESULTS CHALLENGE
-Participants in the Herff Jones Marketing Results Challenge will assist Herff Jones in testing an array of promotional messages delivered to potential yearbook buyers through various channels. After analysis of buying patterns and attitudes at their own schools, teams will create and implement marketing campaigns to increase yearbook awareness and sales on campus. Whether they opt to employ a single campaign with messages delivered through multiple channels or several different approaches in order to study and measure effectiveness, they will conclude the challenge by preparing a video which details their methods and results. These videos will be evaluated by Herff Jones executives to determine finalists.

DECA/KNOWLEDGE MATTERS DIGITAL PRESENTATION SKILLS CHALLENGE

Demonstrate your digital presentation skills utilizing a Virtual Business simulation in a one- to two-minute digital presentation. The topic is up to you. You can talk solely about the strategies you use in the simulation. You could discuss real-world business stories and illustrate the stories with sim exercises. Or, you could talk about your own life, your knowledge of business and financial literacy, and again utilize a Virtual Business simulation to relate to and illustrate your topic. Each presentation needs to include video footage of the member presenting/talking about the topic, but the tools that you utilize to create your digital presentation are up to you. Use still images and screenshots of the Virtual Business sims or video captures of the simulations in action. The top eight finalists will deliver a live five- to ten-minute digital presentation via Google Hangouts or Zoom. The top three winners will be awarded cash prizes and highlighted on stage at ICDC 2021 with approval from the chartered association advisor. Open to any DECA chapter that has at least one active license to a Knowledge Matters Virtual Business simulation.

Southern Region Vice President

Hadley Brown was born and raised in Sumner County, Tennessee. As DECA's Southern Region Vice President, she hopes to inspire other leaders and share her passion for leadership. Hadley discovered that the road to leadership is unique through firsthand experiences in leadership positions across Tennessee and interviewing community leaders on her YouTube channel, Grown Leaders with Hadley Brown. Hadley served twice as the Tennessee DECA President and as her chapter's Vice President of Leadership. When not changing the world as a student leader, she enjoys spending time with her family (and two dogs!) as well as eating as much sushi as she can get.

Being GenYOUine; How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome

If you have ever sat down at a table but looked around and felt like you did not belong, you are far from alone. Imposter syndrome will fill your head with doubts about your talents and abilities. Overcoming these doubts will take a journey, but in this workshop, you will discover a path towards confidence and uniqueness. Being genuine over social media, prioritizing self-care, and building communication skills are steppingstones towards the goal of holding a high self-worth. Along with support from a community of student leaders, you will soon be pulling your chair up to more tables.

The Value of Kindness in Overcoming Unintentional Bias

Unintentional bias is a result of both nature and nurture. In a life full of reacting to unexpected challenges, one conscious choice always remains on the table: being kind. We each have a story to tell; with ears open and a heart full of acceptance, I am excited to share the impact of kindness on my life in a way that can be translated into yours.
