Youth Leadership Projects

The Essence of Leadership: “A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the quality of his actions and the integrity of his intent. In the end, leaders are much like eagles… they don’t flock, you find them one at a time”.

We thank you for the opportunity to introduce you to our vision – a transformational program for Youth that will show them that life is a gift and their gift in return is to live it to the full!

We believe that only by personal transformation, acceptance of our fellow man and the ability to communicate with a genuine desire for peace and abundance for all is the start. A dawning of awareness – beginning with the children.

  • Remember when you were a teenager – how intense were your emotions?
  • Were you surrounded by inspirational individuals offering support?
  • Did you have a mentor to coach and guide you?
  • Did you eagerly set goals where you were continually stretched and challenged?
  • Did you have high self esteem; were articulate and able to enter discussions confident of your ability to put forward your opinion?
  • Were you constantly learning new skills that motivated and empowered you?

How would it have been for you – if these resources were available to you, setting lifelong standards throughout your teenage years?

Where would you be now? How would you view yourself? How would you relate to your family and friends? What would your children have gained from your knowledge?

Imagine if these skills were available to every child, year 7 to year 12. How would your community be affected? What a contribution our planet would have with the fundamental standards of personal achievement, rapport, contribution and powerful, positive emotion as the norm.

A pilot program began in July 2000 in the USA called ‘Discovery Camp’ that was ten years in the making. This program is aimed for children aged 15-16 years, with the focus on Youth leadership and provides the opportunity to develop skills for both teenagers and teachers.

We are committed volunteers with a goal: “To create the opportunity for young people to set their own standards for their futures. With the result enabling them to share and experience an extraordinary quality of life not only for themselves, but also for all those who they have the privilege to touch”.

Why Youth Leadership?

  • To make better choices and remove the limitations
  • Become an outstanding communicator
  • Influence themselves and others to get the results
  • Become a role model
  • Create a powerful positive identity and develop Leadership skills

We are delivering:

  • A program to enhance Youth Leadership – a mentoring program
  • Ongoing interaction with teachers and teens
  • Programs for teachers and teens to immerse themselves in new learning technology

Participants in these programs will return to their communities with passion and purpose and certainty about themselves and their ability to acquire the desired results and lead others to do the same.

They will learn tools and skills for long-term success; cutting-edge technology; and outrageously playful adventures in great locations. The results will positively influence the peer pressures of today.

Young Leader Financial Summit – QLD

This is a two and a half day program that has a focus on teaching skills in many areas of finance including budgeting, saving, investing and credit.  Subjects that are not part of schools curriculum and are not always fully understood in their home environment.  Helping young people to understand these critical issues at a time when they are entering the workforce in a part time capacity is critical to create a strong foundation for their financial future.  We are very excited about this program

 

Global Youth Leadership Summit - USA

Global Youth Leadership Summit is a week long program held by The Anthony Robbins Foundation in San Diego, USA.  Using Tony Robbins techniques that have been modified for teens this program has been developing youth peoples lives for over a decade.  The Magic Moments Foundation has seen phenomenal results in the young people they have taken to Global Youth Leadership Summit.  The personal development skills taught during this week are life changing.  

How awesome would it be for you – to know that it is your contribution that changes these young lives. Consider sponsoring a child or a team to go to any of our Youth Leadership Programs – ask us for details or email youth@magicmoments.org.au .
