Developing
personal leadership is a critical component in bringing today’s
youth into society and the workforce as healthy, productive contributors.
Rising Stars’ proven process instills these behaviors along with
additional return on investment through prevention and reduction of risk
behavior.In many
cases, attitudes will directly determine whether a young person turns a problem
into an opportunity or succumbs to it; whether they behave in ways that benefit
others or remain self-absorbed; whether they consciously expand the use of
their potential or allow atrophy to set in; whether they diligently look for
continous growth and improvement opportunities or remain satisfied with the
status quo. Interpersonal skills when combined with increased knowledge and
goal setting behavior enhance the ability of youth to assess the impact of
their existing and future success. The end result is that young people transition
beyond the traditional approach to learning, and start applying knowledge therefore
taking control of their own destiny.The
Rising Stars process contains all of these components along with innovative
self-directed learning strategies by which young people take responsibility
for their own personal improvement and constructivism.The
purpose of this performance model is three-fold. First, through the successful
application of self-leadership skills during their middle school, high
school, or early college years, young people will embrace the process and
tools enabling them to achieve their goals thereby becoming positive contributors
to their community. Second, the alignment of all goals by all shareholders
within any organization is critical to create a high performance, sustainable
environment. Third, beginning by defining the end result using a variety
of pre-determined benchmarks, a positive return on investment can be directly
realized.• Keys to a Positive Self-Image
