HOW KIDPOWER WORKS

KidPower is based on 3 Basic Powers! At the heart of the KidPower model are three basic powers Deborah Jung discovered children possess that we often lose as adults: Kids are tenacious! Kids expect the answer to be yes! Kids believe in the impossible! KidPower creates a journey for any child or teen to discover and ignite those powers, and when used by adults, allows each person to rediscover and embrace what they once knew. How KidPower Works KidPower Leadership Training provides a specific sequential design for leadership teams to share tribal stories, the corporate culture, to define power, set goals, and write an action plan. The plan is practiced and revisited consistently and at the end of any project, or corporate year, the full team evaluates their combined work and prepares for the future. In this way, the organization and its leadership grow project to project and year to year.

KIDPOWER BOARD
