Teenager Personal Development Programmes and Seminars
Don't laugh at a youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find a face of his own. ~Logan Pearsall Smith, "Age and Death," Afterthoughts, 1931
At LECI coaching, training and working with people of all ages is our passion. When you participate in one of our courses you will find yourself in the company of inspiring people who love what they do. We are committed to creating an environment where our individual strengths and talents are nurtured from an early age.
We work with teenagers on a one to one, or group basis to provide Seminars and Youth Development Programmes. Our signature teenager’s course 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teenagers can provide teenagers with all the necessary skills necessary to develop into responsible young adults.
The desired results for teenagers as a result of this programme are:
Gain greater control of their lives
Improve relationships with family and friends
Increase self confidence and self esteem
Make smarter decisions
Define their values and what matters most to them
Recognise and prioritise their goals
Find balance between studying, work, friends and everything else
The Seminars and Youth Development Programmes involve workshop style programmes that are highly participative and engaging for all involved. The workshops give teenagers the opportunity to explore, discuss and embed life skills in a safe and friendly environment.
On Thursday, December 17th 2009 we departed on a Transition Year Santa Cycle from Dublin to Cork. This initiative combined putting into action the skills and tools explored during class based work with achievement and success in the real life context. Students (from Maynooth Post Primary and Castleknock College) also engaged in fund raising for a number of charities, including the Chernobyl Children’s Project. This innovative cycle challenge was also eligible as part of the GAISCE President’s Awards.
Other challenging initiatives will be undertaken during 2010.
