Thank you for your interest in A Quick Guide to Personal Development.. Before I was involved in leadership development, I was considered an at-risk youth, who could not read or write and spoke with a lisp. Growing up in a single-parent, fatherless home, I had my own challenges on the streets of Warren, Ohio. . With proper training and mentoring, I overcame my barriers and achieved my goals. I was the Leadership Development Coordinator for Youth-Build Trumbull County, Prevention Specialist for the Warren Urban Minority Acohol and Drug Abuse Outreach Program, Inc., Executive Director of the Young Black Men's Association, Inc., Congressional Aid for Congressman Tim Ryan of Ohio, and a published author. . Over the past twenty-three years, I have accomplished my goals and so can you. I have collected many resources. In this manual, I have brought together a few of the fundamental terms and ideas that have served me throughout my long career. . I have also developed a personal workbook which is also available on e that helps readers further understand, appreciate, and optimize results to this book. With engaging, in-depth pre and posttest allow readers to measure their progress and success.. I highly recommend you purchase the personal workbook and take the protests for self-examination. Enjoy!
