The inept quest to lead others must first start with your ability to lead yourself. Self leadership is thus the ability of an individual to navigate his life's path successfully while achieving great impacts. The outcomes of which society can be grateful for. As our world takes a shift post COVID 19 and its adverse economic effects, careers, jobs and many companies have awoken to the sharp reality of systems updates, redefinition of critical roles and refocus of both human and material resources to areas that matter most. As young people begin to adjust to these realities, it's imperative to acquire the right knowledge and insight into the new global economy and how to position oneself as we endeavor to launch and grow in our sphere of influence. Its time for an update. No doubt about that but like all softwares, when you refuse to adhere to the simple instruction to update, you become an automatic victim of the malfunction of the old. Youth Unemployment is already a huge problem, coupled with limited opportunities for grabs and growth. The question is how can one build an enviable career strong enough to withstand the many shifts and changes ahead as the world becomes more and increasingly boarderless. Self Leadership can not be taken for granted. Positioning for alternative opportunities can't be over emphasised and exploring Leadership in public service a critical necessity. As part of our engagements in our upcoming November event, we will bring participants an engagement sessions which will be focused on How they can Design and develop enviable careers and distribute value to their world. Value that society can be grateful for. We will learn once again How to start an NGO or Foundation and build it to a point of accessing grants. In these, we will forget public servant leaders and Transformational Political leaders. You can't miss. Endeavor to be part of change this November in Accra. The team will confirm our Venue on 10th September 2024. Below is the registration link for non members of Youth Model Parliament-YMP. Fill it, we will get in touch in the coming days. You will represent your district and attend this powerful event alongside your Youth MP. https://lnkd.in/dda2iZnE The YEC Team https://lnkd.in/dda2iZnE 0207633555
