Remember when you were in high school?  How impossible it seemed to juggle assignments, homework, hobbies, family, friends and maybe even a part time job?  Wouldn’t it have been great to have someone who was prepared to give you their undivided attention to help you learn how to manage everything and make life less stressful?

 

You may not have had that opportunity, but thanks to the Castle Hill RSL Club, young adults will have that opportunity in 2015 through the Max Potential personal leadership program. Now in its 7th year in the Hills District, we are inviting members of the community and businesses to join this dynamic and life-changing program. We are currently looking for professionals, community leaders and others interested in making a difference in the life of a young adult – to be trained as a leadership community coach.

 

Max Potential is focused on personal leadership development and is an innovative program considered a best practice in developing young leaders of the future and is gaining momentum in communities all around NSW. Max Potential runs over 22 weeks between March and August where year 11 students from local High Schools across the Hills District are awarded Club and corporate partner scholarships. 

 

The program is unique in that it matches business professionals, service providers and community leaders that have a heart to make a difference and a young adult.  Coaches put in time and energy into helping their young adult gain a sense of achievement and a taste of what is like to help others through leadership.   

 

Young adults and coaches have 8 face to face coaching sessions (at school) and attend 3 group workshops held at the Club.  Over the 22 weeks, they work with their coach on setting and achieving goals, learning how the 10 MAXIMISERS™ principles for success can help them achieve their goals. Each young adult identifies a need in the community and with the help of their coach, brainstorms ideas to create an action plan to help meet that need.  Each young adult then leads their Community Service Project through to completion.  

 

The program concludes with a Showcase event that allows the young adults to set up a display stand of what they have learned throughout their journey and to talk to VIPs and guests about their Community Service Plan.

 

We are inviting members of the community who would like to invest in the next generation (Yr 11 Young Adults) whilst learning and gaining key skills in being a Coach to apply to be a Community Coach in 2015.
