What You Can Achieve As A Young Leader?
You might have heard the phrase “the world is your oyster” before. As a young person, chances are you hear this phrase countless times a week. Maybe it has been overused to the point where it has essentially been rendered meaningless. However, when you fully embrace your journey as a Young Leader, you will fully comprehend what this phrase means. Opportunities are endless, and countless doors start to swing wide open for you. Some people are lucky enough to have incredible opportunities land in their laps. Young Leaders stand up and go find those opportunities for themselves, taking the lead on their lives and carving out their own future. Sounds appealing? That is where we come in.
Anything that is rewarding, exhilarating, and exciting usually comes at a cost. It takes hard work, dedication, determination, and direction. But fear not, because you aren’t expected to embark on this adventure by yourself. Here at The Leading You^nth, we will aid you in training, mentoring, guiding, and advising you on your journey. Treat The Leading You^nth as the building blocks to your future palace. We will act as a foundation to all the awe inspiring accomplishments you are about to go claim. We can’t promise to do the hard work for you, however the academic and professional world can be a jungle at times – filled with crumbling paths, poisonous plants, and venomous insects. The Leading You^nth is your map through this jungle. And you are the explorer! It is time to go find your treasure.
The fact of the matter is – you guys aren’t often given the resources you need and deserve to bring your goals into fruition. Only 36% of students feel they are prepared for their future career, and 31% don’t know which career they should go into*1. The employable skill set needed to nail job interviews, or smash academic targets goes further than what they teach in schools. The Leading You^nth is designed to fill in the gaps within your curriculum, and provide you with a real-life mentality to tackle obstacles and ensure success. First, let’s cover some of the tools we, at The Leading You^nth, will provide you with. We offer a range of in-demand, skills based, Youth Leadership Training Courses. Everyone has their own specific skill set – with some talents polished, and others a little rusty. The wide range of qualities and specialities is what makes Young Leaders so incredible! That’s why we offer you the freedom of choice with our training course. You can pick from our customised range of skill sets you want to brush up on. Perhaps you want to be able to ‘communicate more professionally’ or persuasively with future employers or university admissions teams. Or maybe you want to be able to ‘manage your time’ to provide higher quality work in shorter time spans. Maybe you want to build your confidence within ‘leadership and management’, so one day you can be the next CEO of a major firm. As we understand the individualistic needs and concerns of each young person, our training courses are customised for the two key categories of young peoplestudents and young professionals, . These courses will enable you to build employable skill sets in demand by employers, learn how to mould your mindset into that of a young leader, communicate with confidence, influence and lead a team as a first-time manager, negotiate better outcomes as a life skill,and invest time into curating a skillset that is perfect for the industry you want to excel in. You’ll find yourself excelling in your career, and landing highly paid, sought after jobs via upskilling and branding yourself with high quality attributes to employers. These training courses will essentially provide you with the solid base for embarking on your journey, meaning you are prepared and conditioned for some of the obstacles you might face whilst becoming a Young Leader.
If you are searching for a more personalised experience, then we also offer ‘mentoring sessions’. Whether you want someone to bounce ideas off of, struggling with university applications, unsure about your career journey, lost in the race of job hunting, or need advice on an area of leadership that you lack confidence in, the mentoring sessions are your trail of breadcrumbs. We offer guidance, positive enforcement, and pushing you to achieve your true highest potential. The mentoring sessions offer you a transformative journey of personal and professional growth, giving you the advantage of focusing on your weakest areas and turning them into your strongest.
And, of course, if you want to become a Young Leader then you might want to lead by example! That is why we also feature a “You^nth Leader of the Month” service on our platform. This service showcases exceptional talent in young people, showing you others just like you who have embraced their identity as a Young Leader and have gone on to achieve extraordinary things! Our chosen Young Leader engages in a virtual masterclass that is available to all to talk about their journey, the lessons they have learned, and pearls of wisdom they can offer people just like you.
Okay, so if you are still reading this – chances are you really want to become a Young Leader. You know about the lifestyle of a Young Leader, what Youth Leadership really entails, and how we can help you to get there. Now for the good bit – what exactly can you achieve as a Young Leader?
The first important thing to note is that being a Young Leader is not restrictive to any certain industry. Whether you’re drawn to the arts, tech, maths, science, politics, literature, graphic design, or architecture – being a Young Leader is an opportunity available to you. Being a Young Leader means you will be equipped with the right mindset, skills, lifestyle, approaches, and structure to achieve your wildest dreams.
As a Young Leader, the first thing you can achieve is the obvious. You will be rewarded with opportunities. This may be a school captaincy you have been aiming for, or acceptance into your dream job, or a promotion in your desired industry. Being a Young Leader doesn’t necessarily make you more qualified or intelligent than the candidates you’re competing with, but it means you have a higher quality work ethic, a solution oriented mindset, an insatiable thirst for growth and learning, as well as the resources for continuous development and progress.
The second thing you can achieve is real change. Being a leader means to be a ringleader of change and reformation. Accompanied by your hard work, being a Young Leader will be incredibly rewarding as you will likely see first hand the domino effect of your work. Whether this be a positive direction in the climate emergency, revolutionary developments in the tech world, or a piece of literature that motivates and educates readers. When you are leading with confidence and purpose, you will embody the change that you want to see in the world.
The third accomplishment to add to your itinerary is inspiration. As a Young Leader, you will be the blueprint for inspiring so many young people around you, and those to come after you. You will be living proof that with motivation and drive, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Inspiring people is an incredibly fulfilling experience, and it means the after-effects of your accomplishments will become a never-ending cycle as you will inspire someone, who will inspire someone, who will inspire someone – and so on so forth. Humanity is in this together – there is no “I” in team. The community you will cultivate as a Young Leader is of immeasurable value. Perhaps you will even be our next Youth Leader of the Month and lead your own masterclass!
Finally, you will accomplish so much personal growth. Being a Young Leader is not confined to your office or your desk at school. As you embody the identity of a Young Leader – you will see positive changes in all aspects in your life. From interpersonal relationships, to building healthy habits. You will nourish yourself with skills and talents that you can apply to your job – or even your grocery shopping! Time management will aid you in your day to day activities, high quality communication skills will enable you to handle conflict better, a solution oriented mindset will lead you to becoming an overall more optimistic and positive person in your life. Being a Young Leader is about lifestyle, not just academia. Your entire life will change and develop for the better when you define yourself as a Young Leader.
Becoming a Young Leader is a life-altering decision. It requires commitment, as well as a true, solid belief in your goals. But believe me when I say that no dream is too big, and the future you envisage for yourself can come into fruition. With the help of our services, and the talents you already have (even if you aren’t entirely aware of them yet), the world truly is your oyster.
