Leaders are learners.

That's why there are so many resources that address leadership issues for the budding entrepeneur, the business leader, even the person who desires to simply lead him or herself. studentlinc was created to specifically address the issues and the circumstances faced by student leaders - those young people who are engaged in the leadership laboratory within their school, youth group, civic organization, etc. This site is dedicated to taking the best of what's available in leadership literature and training and offer it within the context of the student leadership experience.

It seems to me that the best leaders are students - always learning...always growing. In fact, I've discovered that there isn't much difference between leaders who strive to be the best students and students who are striving to be the best leaders. There's a lot to learn when one is leading others. studentlinc helps you get to the next level. One of the goals of this project is to give student leaders the confidence to be who they are while they strive to become something more.

At the heart of studentlinc is the leadership blog. This part of the website is continually updated with relevant articles, practical insights, and easy-to-apply resources for both the student leader and those who work alongside student leaders. The rest of the website offers:

• organized links to specific articles
• downloadable tools that are reproducible for immediate use
• practical Ebooks that will help student leaders make the most of their experience
• opportunities to bring real, hands-on training to your group of student leaders

About Tim Milburn

Tim Milburn (or maybe it should just be "I" since "I'm" typing this) is the founder, author, and designer of studentlinc. I discovered my love for student leadership in the second grade when I was selected to be the "eraser" monitor (this was the person that got to go outside and bang the erasers together to get the chalk out...the person always came back in a little pale). From that moment, I always got excited about leaders and leading.

After spending over thirteen years developing student leaders as a youth pastor, I now serve as the Director of Campus Life on a university campus. Each new year is an opportunity to share many of the lessons that I've learned and taught hundreds of student leaders. I've been married to Judy for almost 19 years and we've got four amazing children: Travis, Victoria, Mitchell, and Abigail.

While studentlinc is a powerful online resource, you may be interested in providing some more intensive training/developing for your specific student leadership group. If that's the case, I'd be happy to look at booking an event in your area. You can find more information on the equip page of studentlinc.
