Youth perceptions and practices of leadership: The influence of structured leadership development programmes in a community context A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Educational Leadership at The University of Waikato by Rachel Hawthorne 2014 ABSTRACT There has been much research focused on adult conceptions and experiences of leadership and its impact on both individuals and organisations. What has not been investigated as fully, is youth leadership and the contexts within which young people’s leadership experiences and emerging understandings are developed. Most opportunities for youth leadership are centred within educational contexts with traditional and hierarchical structures that limit access for all but an elite minority. This thesis presents findings from a research project involving a school- community partnership. It examines perceptions of leadership by youth participating in a 12 week experiential community leadership development programme, and the how involvement within this context influenced the leadership perceptions of nine participants involved in the study.
