JOHN MAXWELL YOUTH PROGRAM

Building Our Future Leaders

ILead Leadership Values Program

The iLead curriculum is made up of values-based roundtables designed by Dr. John C. Maxwell to allow the next generation of leaders to develop their values and leadership skills. A value or leadership characteristic is paired with an image to help make the concept memorable.

The format allows students to get experience leading as they take turns facilitating the roundtables. Each lesson contains a short teaching on a value or leadership characteristic, asks students to rate how well they practice this characteristic, and asks them to commit to one action step for the week that will allow them to improve their score in this area.

Values-based roundtables have proven to be incredibly effective in the John Maxwell Leadership Foundations’ country transformation e orts. John Maxwell recognized that if we could help students learn and apply these same concepts, we would be able to provide a foundation that could set them, and their country, up for meaningful and sustainable success. iLead was birthed out of this belief.

Year 1 – iChoose is connecting Values & Leadership
Year 2 – iDo is connecting Actions & Leadership
Year 3 – iLead is connecting Influence & Leadership
