State Leadership Seminar

HOBY’s flagship program, the STATE LEADERSHIP SEMINAR (LS) allows rising high school juniors (sophomores who have just graduated) to recognize their leadership talents and apply them to become effective, ethical leaders in their home, school, workplace, and community. Students attend three- or four-day seminars and participate in hands-on leadership activities, meet leaders in their state, and explore their own personal leadership skills while learning how to make a positive impact in their community. The seminar curriculum is based on the Social Change Model of Leadership and develops leadership from three perspectives: Personal Leadership, Group Leadership, and Leadership for Society.
