Mission and Values

CORE VALUES
Volunteerism. Integrity. Excellence. Diversity.
Community Partnership.


OUR MISSION
To inspire and develop our global community of youth and volunteers to a life dedicated to leadership, service, and innovation.

For more than five decades, HOBY has inspired young people to make a difference and become catalysts for positive change in their home, school, workplace, and community. As America’s foremost youth leadership organization, HOBY has a long history of successfully motivating young people to develop into outstanding leaders.
CORE LEADERSHIP SKILLS
Much of the work at HOBY involves young people exploring and identifying their unique leadership skills. Every student is different, and there is no attempt to impart a predefined set of attributes onto HOBY participants. We stress self-knowledge, uniqueness, and authenticity, not conformity. Students learn to mobilize their own unique traits and are exposed to particular leadership principles that they can explore and incorporate in a fashion that is true to their own personality.
Picture
Some of these include:
  • Consciousness of self: values, emotions, and beliefs that motivate you to take action
  • Behaving with consistency, genuineness, and honesty toward others
  • Personal commitment as energy that drives the collective effort
  • Collaboration: empowering others and self through trust
  • Common purpose—working with shared aims and values
  • Collective analysis of issues at hand and tasks to be undertaken
  • Maintaining civility in light of differences in viewpoint
  • Conflict resolution: creating group consensus
  • Conscientious citizenship: thinking critically about societal issues
  • Service as a way to become an effective, active citizen in the community
