6th Annual Global Youth Initiative,

About the event

Note: This is a free event. 

Bullying, failure, low self-image and poor character decisions are at the heart of many of the challenges facing young people in today's changing world. John Maxwell* and the John Maxwell Team** have decided to do something about it. During Global Youth Initiative Week, Certified John Maxwell Team members are offering YouthMAX, a youth leadership program inspired by the leadership principles of John C. Maxwell. YouthMAX is designed to give today’s young people practical tools and ideas to help them navigate life. At this event location, Denise Lukart, Independent Certified Speaker and Trainer with The John Maxwell Team, will introduce portions of the YouthMAX program.

During this event, attendees will be equipped, inspired and empowered to:

• Have a Positive Self Image: Self-confidence and good character are at the heart of great leaders.
• Respect Themselves and Others: Great leaders do not bully or put others down. They value people and build them up.
• Be a Positive Influence: Leadership is influence. Young people are the leaders of today!
• Fail Forward Toward Success: Leaders have the right attitude about failure and see it as an important part of success.
• Adopt Habits of Success: Developing good habits is essential for personal growth and success.

This event includes special guest speakers, door prizes and refreshments. This event is free and open to all children and youth groups, ages 8-18. Parents, Teachers and Youth Leaders are encouraged to attend.
