What will you learn from this Handbook?
The Leadership Handbook is made of 4 learning blocks and together they make the whole youth leadership capacity building structure:
1. WHY THIS HANDBOOK This block will explain the idea and aim behind the creation of this Handbook and who are the people who contributed to its development.
Hi reader! 2. INTRO TO YOUTH WORK Here you will slowly enter the main topics of our Handbook and you will get introduced with the youth work and volunteering – the worlds of youth leaders.
Welcome! 3. ME, THE LEADER This is the block that will firstly explore the meaning of the leader and its types, and then it will help you work on your leadership competences. It will lead you through range of different knowledge, skills and attitudes which we consider important for the good leader. Can you see yourself here?
4. LEADERSHIP IN PRACTICE There is no leadership without action, which is why in this block we present you with the main elements of successful activity planning. We hope to empower and motivate you to make initiative and take action in your hands.
Go you! After all, remember, this Handbook is your support and can be your inspiration, but so much depends actually on you! Imagine it as a house, equipped with basic furniture sufficient for basic living. Now it is up to you to nicely decorate it and improve the house with your effort, curiosity, experience and self-development in the field of youth leadership.
