Abstract
Youth Leadership Omaha (YLO) is an interactive leadership
development program which informs, motivates and increases
the awareness of selected high school sophomores from the
greater Omaha metro area through issue-oriented seminars and
interaction with community decision-makers. The program
outcome is an investment in the Omaha community's future
leadership.
Since its inception, the annual program has brought together a
diverse group of 40 student participants to examine their schools,
neighborhoods, ethnicities, faiths, leadership skills and life
experiences in a forum that allows for the free exchange of ideas,
information and advice.
Creighton University staff members, Maryanne Rouse and
Jeremy Fisher, oversee the program and provide direction and
management of college student leadership mentors, a team of
business majors who participate in Creighton’s four-year
leadership development program – the Anna Tyler Waite
Leadership Scholars Program.
