Description

Youth leadership – undoubtedly a topic that's been done again and again. But what does Michelle have to say on the subject that's any different?

Michelle attacks the issue of youth leadership from a different perspective, looking at how youth engagement can solve bigger societal problems and ask how to bring marginalized youth into the equation. Innovative leadership means reaching out to those who have little opportunity to be active and contributing citizens in society – people who have never been interested or have never been given the opportunity to contribute. Michelle reaches out to these youth talking about changing their lives first – and then changing the world. This topic is appropriate both for young people and those who work or are involved with youth.
