The curriculum for this Leadership Seminar is based on HOBY’s vi-
sion to motivate and empower individuals to make a positive dif-
ference within our global society. HOBY believes students like you
represent the future leaders of the world – leaders in business, edu-
cation, government, or any field you choose – because YOU are
someone who will make a difference. By developing and under-
standing effective and compassionate leadership, we hope you will
be able to realize your leadership potential, and take action in your
homes, schools, workplace, communities and the world.
Your HOBY experience will help you develop leadership from three
perspectives:
1. Personal Leadership; 2. Group Leadership; and
3. Leadership for Society.
We will focus on your individual growth in order for your leadership
to make a better world and a better society for yourself and others.
So, stand out and be outstanding! Show us who
you are and what you can do. HOBY is your open
door to a life of leadership and service. We can’t
wait to learn what potential you will unlock
through HOBY.

VISION To motivate and empower individuals to make a positive difference
within our global society, through understanding and action, based on
effective and compassionate leadership.
MISSION To inspire and develop our global community of youth and volunteers
to a life dedicated to leadership, service and innovation.
CORE VALUES
Volunteerism - Volunteerism is the heart and soul of our organization. We appreciate the myriad contributions of our volunteers, and recognize the power of thank you and of giving back. We seek to promote and encourage
service among our stakeholders. We recognize and value the positive accom-plishments that volunteers can achieve by working together. We believe that volunteers are positively impacted by our programs as much as the youth
and communities we serve.
Integrity – Integrity forms the foundation of our organization. We demand the highest level of ethics. We grow our organization based on interactions that promote mutual trust and respect with our stakeholders and partners.
We strive to ensure the highest level of organizational effectiveness by contin-ually reviewing our programs and processes to improve quality and efficien-
cy.
Excellence – We strive to continually raise our programs and business to new levels of excellence. We encourage entrepreneurship and innovation in business, education, and social responsibility. We develop creative solutions to address challenges and to utilize opportunities. We believe that leadership
skills can and should be continually improved and refined.
Diversity – We value and embrace diversity. We seek out views that reflect all walks of life, and reflect those views in our programs. We are sensitive to the special needs and diverse backgrounds of individuals. We give all indi-
viduals an equal opportunity to be heard and to benefit from our programs.
Community Partnership – We value community partnerships. We recognize
the importance of working with community organizations to strengthen our supportive network. We value the input we receive from our community part-ners, and strive to work together cooperatively and constructively for the
betterment of all.

In 1958, Mr. O’Brian was privileged to spend nine inspirational days with the
great humanitarian and 1952 Nobel Peace Prize Winner Dr. Albert Schweitzer at
his clinic in Africa. Dr. Schweitzer’s strong belief that “the most important thing
in education is to teach young people to think for themselves” impressed O’Bri-
an. Upon his return to the United States, he put Schweitzer’s words into action
by forming Hugh O’Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY), a non-profit organization.
Its format for motivation was simple: bring a select group of high school sopho-
mores with demonstrated leadership abilities together with a group of distin-
guished leaders in business, education, government, and the professions, and
let the two interact. Using a question-and-answer format, the young people
selected to attend a HOBY Leadership Seminar held each spring in their state
get a realistic look at what it takes to be a true leader, thus better enabling
them “to think for themselves.”
Today HOBY offers multiple leadership development programs for high school
students based on the Social Change Model of Leadership and incorporating
community service. Community Leadership Workshops (CLeWs) are held each
year locally for freshmen. HOBY State Leadership Seminars for sophomores are
held throughout the United States every spring. The World Leadership Congress
(WLC) for rising juniors is held each summer in July at a major university in
the U.S. and invites students from around the world to participate. HOBY style
programs are also conducted in Canada, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, Iraq,
Mexico, the Philippines, Taiwan, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
The cultural differences that exist between countries of the world are explored
in friendship by the American students and their international counterparts
when they come together at the WLC. The HOBY experience is truly an inspira-
tional event of a lifetime for student leaders. The Advanced Leadership Academy
for juniors and seniors launched in 2013, HOBY’s 55th anniversary year. HOBY
boasts more than 450,000 alumni worldwide. Its alum-
ni programs include international tour and service
trips for high school and college students.
Each program year, Mr. O’Brian wrote this message to
the current year’s ambassadors and we pass it on to all
of you. “I don’t have any children of my own, but I’ve
got a couple of hundred thousand like you out there
who I’m proud to call my family. So, shine bright my
friends; you are all my tomorrows and the future is
yours to make outstanding!! I wish you love and God-
speed”!

Welcome to HOBY!
HOBY Hugs,
Connor Brady
Leadership Seminar Chair
HOBY North Carolina East
In 1958, Hugh O'Brian accepted a life-changing invitation to shadow hu-manitarian Dr. Albert Schweitzer in west Africa. By day, Hugh watched volunteer doctors and nurses, without running water or electricity, care for patients with leprosy. By night, Hugh listened to stories and life lessons
from Dr. Schweitzer, who impressed upon him the urgency for global change and the need for education to teach young people to think inde-pendently. Upon departure from this unforgettable experience, Schweitzer took Hugh by the hand and asked, "What are you going to do with this?" On behalf of the entire North Carolina East Hugh O'Brian Youth Leader-
ship volunteer committee, I am pleased to welcome you to Hugh's answer. Months of planning and hard work have gone into making this weekend one you will remember for a lifetime. Many people have contributed their time, money, and energy into crafting this experience for you - with the only expectation that you fully embrace it by learning, making lasting friendships, and have FUN while you're here! You are here because others see something special in you. You are recog-
nized as a leader. The next three days afford you an opportunity to go be-yond past beliefs and behaviors, share your beliefs with others, and learn about the unique contributions that you can make to our future. This seminar is one of more than 70 held in North America this year. I am proud of the team of volunteers, many of them alumni themselves, who have contributed thousands of hours to plan this weekend. No one here has been paid. In fact, most have taken time from work and contributed
financially to be here with you. We do it because we believe that YOU represent a bright future, but even more so, a bright PRESENT. You are the leaders that our world needs NOW and forever, and what better place than HOBY to be reminded of that? On Sunday, you will join the rank of HOBY alumni: a family of over 400,000 who believe
in the power of leadership for service. You'll be asked what YOU intend to do with the life changing invitation you've accepted. I look forward to your answer. HOBY Hugs,
Connor Brady Leadership Seminar Chair HOBY NC East

The HOBY Story
In the summer of 1958, Hugh O’Brian received the invitation that
would change his life forever. At the time, O’Brian had already made
a name for himself as an actor portraying the legendary lawman Wy-
att Earp on television and appearing in numerous films. When he
received a cable from Dr. Albert Schweitzer welcoming him to French
Equatorial Africa for a visit, he did not hesitate to accept. O’Brian
had long admired the German doctor-missionary-theologian-
musician, and within two weeks he arrived at Dr. Schweitzer’s re-
mote hospital complex in Africa. During his visit, O’Brian spent his days assisting the volunteers in the hospital and his nights with Dr.
Schweitzer discussing global peace and world politics. During their
discussions, Dr. Schweitzer told O’Brian that he felt “The most im-
portant thing in education is to teach young people to think for
themselves,” which O’Brian would never forget.
After an inspiring nine days, O’Brian prepared to return to America.
Before saying goodbye, Dr. Schweitzer took O’Brian’s hand and
asked, “Hugh, what are you going to do with this?” It was these
words combined with his unforgettable visit that compelled Hugh
O'Brian to form Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY). Two weeks
after returning from his 1958 visit to Africa, O’Brian put together a
prototype seminar for young leaders.
From 1958 to 1967, leadership seminars took place in Los Angeles
for sophomores from California. In 1968 the scope of the HOBY pro-
gram grew to include national and international participants which
led to the expanded eight-day global leadership seminar called the
World Leadership Congress (WLC) held annually. In an effort to in-
clude more students nationwide, three-day and four-day HOBY Leadership Seminars were instituted in 1977 in which high schools
throughout the country may nominate a sophomore to attend a
HOBY seminar in their state.
Five decades later, HOBY is still inspiring young people all over the
world to develop their leadership and critical-thinking skills to
achieve their highest potential. Currently, more than 9,000 tenth
graders, representing almost as many high schools nationwide, at-
tend HOBY Leadership Seminars each year. These seminars are run
by over 4,000 volunteers with community leaders, business execu-
tives, educators, and parents involved in every seminar. Each semi-
nar strives to follow the HOBY motto of teaching students, “how to
think, not what to think,” thus ensuring that Dr. Schweitzer’s hope
for young people lives on.

Hugh O’Brian: Visionary,
Legendary Humanitarian
Hugh O’Brian was born April 19, 1925 in Rochester, New
York. At 17, he became the youngest drill instructor in Ma-
rine Corps history, but found his
true passion was acting. O’Brian
gained national fame and notoriety
with his portrayal of frontier lawman
Wyatt Earp in “The Life and Times of
Wyatt Earp.” This top-rated televi-
sion series ran from 1955-1962 and
made O’Brian an overnight success.
After the series ended, O’Brian went
on to other acting projects in film,
television, and Broadway while devoting the rest of his time
to HOBY.
The honors and awards he has received from his work with
HOBY are numerous. In 1983, the National Society of Fund
Raising Executives honored him with their premier award
for overall philanthropic excellence as a volunteer, fund-
raiser and philanthropist. This is the only time one individ-
ual has received the award in all three categories. In 1989,
he received the 60th Annual American Education Award
presented by the American Association of School Adminis-
trators. O'Brian joins Norman Rockwell, Lyndon Johnson,
Helen Keller, Walt Disney, and Bob Hope as a recipient of
this most significant award. Mr. O’Brian died on September
5, 2016 at the age of 91.

History of HOBY North Carolina and The Jaycees
North Carolina’s first HOBY Leadership Seminar was held in 1979 by the Charlotte Jaycees at Belmont College. Fifty high school sophomores attended. By 1987, the HOBY-NC seminar had
grown to over 200 Ambassadors. From 1988 through 2002, the Raleigh Jaycees ran a HOBY Seminar for Ambassadors from the Eastern half of the state and the Charlotte Jaycees ran the
seminar for Ambassadors from the Western half of the state. However, in 2003, the seminars were reunited again under a single HOBY-NC banner and were managed and staffed primarily by the Raleigh Jaycees. In 2010, Jaycees and HOBY alumni from all over North Carolina unit-
ed to relaunch a second HOBY-NC seminar in western North Carolina. HOBY NC West is op-erated by the Winston Salem Jaycees and HOBY NC East is operated by the Raleigh Jaycees. In 2013, HOBY NC Alumni founded the HOBY North Carolina Alumni Association.
Who are the Raleigh Jaycees?
The Raleigh Jaycees have been a mainstay in the Triangle community, developing leaders
through community service for more than 80 years. The chapter is now a thriving member-ship of young men and women between the ages of 21 to 40 from various personal and profes-sional backgrounds. A motto of the Jaycees organization is “Leadership Development through
Community Service”–a view shared with the HOBY program.
The Raleigh Jaycees offer countless opportunities to: · build professional and personal skills
· get involved in the community · network professionally · attend unique and exciting special events
· meet new people
Chartered in 1932, we are an all-volunteer civic organization that runs over 100 community service and leadership development projects each year. Annually we donate over $65,000 and countless volunteer hours to area organizations through our various projects. As an affiliate of
the NC Jaycees, the US Jaycees, and Junior Chamber International, the opportunities provid-ed by the Raleigh Jaycees truly are endless. There is no other young professionals' organiza-
tion like the Raleigh Jaycees! For more information, visit www.raleighjaycees.org or call (919) 713-0031.
Who are the North Carolina Jaycees?
The North Carolina Jaycees give young adults between the ages of 21 and 40 the tools they
need to build the bridges of success for themselves and their communities in the areas of business development, individual development, community involvement and international
connections. We foster the development of leaders through training, real world experience, community involvement, and the creation of a collaborative network among young adults.
We take pride in our global community and are dedicated to leading the positive change needed throughout North Carolina. The Jaycees provide our members with the opportunities to
learn new skills and become the leaders of tomorrow by creat-ing lasting impact and fulfilling the needs of our communities
today. Partnerships with our state and local govern-ments, North Carolina based businesses and other community organizations are important to us and necessary to move North Carolina forward. Team up with us today and create the
relationships needed to strengthen our state by enhancing our local communities and engag-ing the young people of North Carolina.

GUEST SPEAKERS
Asking Mindy what she does (for a living) will usually
bring the following response, “I work hard every day to
change the world!” Recognized with an NC State cam-
pus award, a “day” in the City of Raleigh and a national
Graduate Fellowship all named in her honor, Mindy
teaches Nonprofit Leadership and Development and
Transition to Higher Education courses at North Caroli-
na State University in Raleigh. She serves as an aca-
demic advisor to First Year students and those changing
majors. She does not recall any time when she was not
advising local or inter/national fraternities and sorori-
ties, either professionally (30+ years) or as a volunteer.
When not travelling the globe as a speaker
@FCFLSpeakers or visiting with HOBYites, she enjoys
her passions back home: memories of her sweet Eng-
lish bulldogs “Queen Victoria” & “Miss Violet”, leader-
ship in transition, service learning, cultivating African violets, jewelry beading
and the delightful labors of her two good friends “Ben and Jerry”! Mindy grew
up in Western Pennsylvania, where she also learned to love the Steelers & how
to make a mean giant newspaper hat!
MINDY SOPHER
DARYL McNAIR
Daryl serves as National Vice President of the US JCI Senate Organi-zation this year. Realizing that there are plenty of individuals that
needed help in and around his community, Daryl reevaluated his level of participation and decided it was time to seriously invest time to not only do for the sake of doing, but help for the sake of causing significant im-pact. In 2008, Daryl was surprised and hon-ored by being named the Number One US JCI Senator in the Country for his continued Impact on the Jaycee organization and the communities it served. Proving he still be-lieves in the phrase that, service to humanity is the best work of life. Quite a ride and change of heart for someone who did not want to join the organization to begin with. Out of all this time, he is always glad to give
back where he can and share what Impacting a community really means. Today, he is excited to be with you.

As you will learn this weekend, one of the most powerful ways to show
leadership is through service to others. HOBY believes so strongly in the
idea of servant leadership that we answered the call and a created an
initiative that challenges all Ambassadors to continue their HOBY expe-
rience long after the seminar concludes. Leadership for Service (L4S)
is HOBY’s service-leadership program intended to prepare young people
to contribute to their communities through service-learning and volun-
teerism.
The objectives of Leadership for Service are:
• To inform Ambassadors about the role and impact of community ser-
vice;
• To facilitate setting short-term community service goals;
• To provide opportunities to connect with community service organi-
zations; and
To provide documentation of program impact and effectiveness.
Each Ambassador is challenged to return to his/her community and
conduct at least 100 hours of community service in the year following
the HOBY Leadership Seminar.
Ambassadors are asked to make a year-long commitment to strengthen
their communities through volunteerism, and to track their success by
logging their hours on the HOBY website, www.hoby.org in the Alumni
section. Since the implementation of HOBY’s Leadership for Service pro-
gram in 1998, participants have logged over 3.75 Million volunteer ser-
vice hours.
Through HOBY’s Leadership for Service programs, Ambassadors gain the
tools, passion and commitment to serve others. To help young people
realize the personal and social benefits of volunteerism and service,
HOBY awards each Ambassador who successfully completes and logs
100 hours a special recognition packet, which includes recognition by
the White House and the President’s Student Service Award.

ty Chicago. By participating in your HOBY Leadership Seminar, you are now eligible
to attend the 2017 World Leadership Congress. This program is only available the

Unfortunately, a very small number of our young people
seem to attract the most of the news. They are in the public
eye because they have stolen cars, vandalized schools, creat-
ed disturbances – in some way rebelled against society.
These headline-makers represent only a small part of our
teenage population. It is a fact that 98.7 percent of our
young people are law-abiding, constructive citizens. There is
too much focus on the negative. It is time we accent the
positive – pat the good guys and gals on the back – let them
know there are rewards for being responsible members of
the community.
I do NOT believe we are all born equal – CREATED equal in
the eyes of God, YES – but physical and emotional differ-
ences, parental guidance, varying environments, being in the
right place at the right time, all play a role in enhancing or
limiting an individual’s development. But I DO believe every
man and woman, if given the opportunity and encourage-
ment to recognize his or her own potential, regardless of
background has the Freedom To Choose in our world. Will
an individual be a taker or a giver in life? Will that person
be satisfied merely to exist, or seek a meaningful purpose?
Will he or she dare to dream the impossible dream?
I believe every person is created as the steward of his or her
own destiny with great power for a specific purpose to share
with others, through service, a reverence for life in a spirit of
love.

What color is your personality?
Instructions: This questionnaire describes forty different personality traits grouped together into four sets of ten statements each. Read each statement and circle the number that most naturally describes how often that personal-ity trait applies to you (i.e. not learned behavior). Add the values of the circled numbers for each set of ten traits. Enter the total for those ten traits only in the appropriate total score space provided at the bottom of each side of the page. Your highest trait total score is your core personality color. Knowing
your “core color” is a key to a better understanding of yourself and others.

SMART Goals
Identify what’s important to you:
What are you passionate about? What do you want to improve?
What problem do you want to solve?
Your goal:
1
“A goal without a plan is just a wish.” - Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Drill down, the why and the what:
What’s your purpose in achieving your goal? What resources would you need to achieve this goal? What obstacles might you encounter while pursuing this goal? What steps will you need to take to achieve your goal?
2 Making your goals SMART:
Specific: State exactly what you want to achieve. Who? What? Why? When? Where? Measurable: How will you determine achievement? This should be a yes/no, true/ false or a number.
Attainable: Is the goal realistic: Is it pos-
sible to accomplish? Will it keep you
motivated?
Relevant: Is it meaningful to you? Does
your goal fit in with your overall values
and beliefs?
Time-bound: Set a date for completion.
What’s your SMART Goal?
