Download or read book Developing Teen Leadership written by Dan Appleman and published by Desaware Publishing. This book was released on 2011-02 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not long ago, all it took to have a comfortable career was to do well in high school, get a college degree, and find a nice stable job. But the world is changing rapidly, and many of the nice stable jobs have moved to developing countries. Even a college degree is not the sure investment it once was. Good grades are not enough. But there remain endless opportunities for those with real leadership skills - regardless of career choice. Leadership skills are what you need to manage a team, to stand out as an employee, to start a business and to nail that interview. The skills required to inspire and motivate others, to communicate effectively, to take initiative, and to make and execute plans, are as important as a high grade point average (if not more so). But how do you teach these skills to teenagers? Parents, teachers, coaches, scoutmasters, youth counselors and advisors strive to do so every day - but often have limited training on how best to accomplish that goal. This book fills that gap. This is not an academic or theoretical book on youth leadership. It is a relentlessly practical guide on how to effectively guide teens to become leaders. It covers virtually every topic, issue and skill you need to know - and how to teach it. You'll even learn how to teach teen leaders to teach leadership skills to each other, thus helping them become even stronger leaders.

Download or read book TEENERSHIP written by Randall Mitchell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teenership- leadership for teens. I have tapped into this unique market because as a teen I had responsibility at school and in the community. Unfortunately all leadership books were for the older crowed in oversized suites and briefcases. There was nothing for the average teen to help us get through school and family life. I have therefore compiled a short easy to read book with personal life lessons. It will help you take charge of your mind, body & spirit. Many other topics are covered, such as bullying, breakups and peer pressure. I believe that before you lead others, you must first be able to lead yourself. I also believe that leadership starts now whilst you are a teen. It starts when you have the capability of making decisions that will shape your future. Let me help you shape the future you desire!

Download or read book The Leader in Me written by Stephen R. Covey and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-12-11 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.
