Title: | Adolescent developmental assets and service leadership | Authors: | Shek, DTL Ma, CMS Liu, TT |
Issue Date: | 2015 | Source: | International journal on disability and human development, 2015, v. 14, no. 3, p. 275-283 | Abstract: | In the field of positive youth development, it is generally asserted that developmental assets or positive youth development qualities contribute to positive adolescent developmental outcomes. In the context of training for service leadership, it is argued that the promotion of developmental assets would help university students develop the foundational competence of service leaders. In this paper, the lesson plan of Lecture Eleven in a course entitled “Service Leadership” run in The Hong Kong Polytechnic University is discussed. In the lecture, four developmental assets related to positive identity (self-esteem, self-efficacy, purpose in life and optimism about the future) proposed by Peter Benson are presented. In addition, the possible contribution of different developmental assets to the development of service leadership is highlighted. Moreover, students are encouraged to reflect on their self-identity and explore effective ways to promote their positive self-image. | Keywords: | Developmental assets Internal assets Positive youth development qualities Positive self-identity |
