Peer learning

Besides learning through the sessions there’s a lot that you will from each other. Every delegate brings in something unique to the table and there’s a lot you can gain from that. You may also see some of your peers, who are your age be present at the conference as Level 2 or Level 3 delegates. Their growth and development after attending the 1st YLC will be visible and they will leave you with nothing short of inspiration. Sometimes, we get inspired by our own friends who are doing great things. There’s a lot you will learn from them. In the past, people who have attended YLC claim it to be a life-altering experience for them. And some of them have also gotten a lot of support from their peers for their own personal ventures after the conference.

Window to newer possibilities

When we restrict ourselves to academics that we are taught in college, our worldview often remains very narrow. A lot of times people who have attended the conference have discovered a completely new side to them. They have also felt that there is so much more they can do and accomplish in their life than what they are currently doing. Speakers who come in are from different walks of life and come in with a heavy experience. They may add so many different perspectives and newer ways of looking at things for you. You will truly enjoy these new windows of possibilities and realms that you might discover about yourself.

Strangers become family

When people come in for the conference, they come in as a bunch of strangers, however, when they leave they leave strangely so like family. At least that is what we have heard and experienced after so many editions of YLC’s. The environment that is created for learning is warm, it is endearing and it is conducive to learning. If you do not feel comfortable where you are, then you will never be able to learn and enjoy new things. We try our best to make you comfortable and help you open up. Even if you are an introvert, it doesn’t matter. We will help you mix up with people effortlessly.

Dose of inspiration

If nothing, then this conference will surely leave you with a heavy dose of inspiration. Inspiration from speakers and from other delegates. And this would not be fleeting and will definitely last for a long long time. Our vision is that one day every person in this world will be positively inspired, informed and intelligent and YLC is one such way of doing so. Your success is our success. We want to make you believe that you can accomplish almost anything that you want to do in your life. This is the feeling we want to send you home with.

Networking

Speakers at YLC are experts in their own rights. They come with diverse experiences and have achieved success in their life through sheer hard work and perseverance. Everyone who comes and speaks at YLC, bring along a lot of passion for the subject that they’re going to be talking to you about. And this gives you an opportunity to network with entrepreneurs, coaches, trainers etc. who are as excited to meet you at the conference as excited you are to hear from them.

Learn how to stay away from home

Especially, if you have not done this before or attended any conference, staying away from home for 2 days and travelling alone may seem like a bit of a challenge. But as they say, there’s always a first time. During the conference, you will share your space with other delegates and this in itself is a great way of learning how to work in teams. For the rest of your life, you would be working in teams and what better way to learn that than live with people you do not know. It will teach you the true essence of sharing and caring for one another. For some of you staying away and for others convincing your parents to let you do this could be a challenge. We assure you, it will be worth the ordeal.

Recharge yourself and have fun

Pressurised with exams, assignments, homework, deadlines, submissions and all that a youngster go through? Then by taking a leap of faith and attending YLC for two days will make you forget all your worries. On a lighter note, people have claimed to have forgotten to use their smartphones during the conference. The YLC experience is so immersive that it will make you forget all your worries. After the session, we have an evening agenda where we play fun games after a productive day of learning. At YLC, you earn your fun time. Attending this is better than any weekend getaway, we assure you that.

Youth Leadership Conference will give you life lessons that no college will teach you. It will help you to become a better version of yourself and a better human being. Don’t give it a second thought and apply now! - https://forms.gle/RyevBt9xuLUXpgur9
