Message from the Past President Keith Miller
Coaching today’s Children to become the Empowering Leaders of tomorrow: The new paradigm in Education.
We are all leaders. We are leading ourselves, our children, spouses, families, teams, clients and communities. So it is not if you are a leader but, how well do you lead?
Leadership is “Modeling a powerful way of being which promotes and builds the internal capacity of others so they are self motivated and access their own answers and resources.”

You are correct; A new youth who believe in themselves, who are motivated to take action, who have effective Leadership skills that empower others, and who will model and pay that empowerment forward.
