By providing information and motivating the baby Penguin and empowering by the teaching of the teacher is the main step involved in the story of empowerment. Providing example of tribute to the heroes as well as giving information about strong and bright as well as highly enthusiastic scouts was the main advantage of empowerment in the specific situation. Later, Stories about the sea were told to other penguins as well as food was also provided to the little members of the team as to create short term win. Little Penguins were also empowered by giving medals and honouring them as heroes.
