The YLI Leadership Framework informs our programming at the levels of curricula, staff and Youth Mentor leadership, and community engagement.
We believe that awareness and knowledge of self—one’s own strengths, weaknesses, personal and cultural histories, and opportunities for learning—are crucial to being an effective leader.
I. Awareness of Self
Collaborating effectively with people with different backgrounds is an increasingly invaluable skill in our multicultural world.
II. Working With Others
Engaging and collaborating with members of our communities are valuable ways to exercise our leadership skills and strengthen community ties.
