Dr. John Shufeldt, MD, JD, MBA, FACEP, who created the LeadershipYOU project, believes it's important to use the Internet as a tool to help young minds gain the leadership experience they may not find in their own personal networks or communities.

"There's no question there is a need for young people to have leadership skills in order to achieve their goals in this life," says Dr. Shufeldt. "I'm hoping the LeadershipYOU.com website will make a contribution towards that end."

The LeadershipYOU project contains three components:

• The book, LeadershipYOU: Your Future Begins With You
• The free massive open online course (MOOC), LeadershipMOOC
• The blog with worldwide leadership news

Dr. Shufeldt believes the combination of these three components provides educators and students with all the tools they need to gain self-leadership skills.

"Self-leadership is the ability to influence yourself, overcome your inertia, and make changes for your own benefit," says Dr. Shufeldt. Adding, "Remember, your future begins with you."
