Promotion & Prevention Leadership (LEAD)

Leadership to promote the good & prevent the bad

90 min | Leadership Development | An Integrative Approach for Youth-Led Social Change

 

Overview

Every day, youth leaders tell us that they know the problem and have ideas to solve it, but they need guidance for how to create change.

This program teaches students the science of motivation and leadership for students to gain an introductory understanding of preventing problems (e.g., mental health concerns, violence, substance use) and promoting aspirations (e.g., mental wellness, peace, connection) in their schools and communities.

Our program trains participants to utilize promotion and prevention science to create holistic goals, motivate and inspire others, and select the right strategies to create meaningful individual, team, and school/ community change.

 

Leadership is about influencing other people to achieve shared goals. So what needs to change?
