How to Bring Out the Leader in Your Daughter: SheLead: Growing Great Female Leaders

By Alan E. Nelson and Alan E. Nelson

How to Bring Out the Leader in Your Daughter is a practical guide for parents, educators and youth workers, who interact with girls & young women, ages 5-20, to understand leadership aptitude and developing their influence potential. The book is based on the groundbreaking research by Dr. Alan E. Nelson, founder of KidLead and designer of the SheLead, executive-caliber, project-based training curricula (www.shelead.org). The book offers a foundation for understanding how girls and young women often get overlooked and misunderstood as young leaders, along with dozens of practical ideas on bringing out the leader in these girls/young women. Unlike most who merely talk about women leadership issues, this book strives to help you do something about it, to develop a new generation of leaders, giving them a 10-30 year head start. Also unlike others, this book defines leadership as the process of helping people accomplish together what they could not as individuals. Thus, leadership is far more than merely character, self-esteem, service, and any number of other self-actualization issues that don't pertain to what leaders do.This book is the adult companion to the SheLead training curricula that schools, faith communities and civic groups can and are offering around the world. Dr. Nelson's work with young leaders globally gives you insights as to how young female leaders do and do not get developed.
