| The Youth leader "The theory of leadership points out that being a leader is a position of responsibility. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Introspection and honesty are the essential characteristics upon which the relation towards the participants are built. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The aim is not to earn a position of awe, but one of trust". (A. Zimonyi - about Leadership, Project: WILD) |
