Welcome to MLM Volume II
We are excited to announce the launch of Million Leaders Mandate Volume II in Southern Africa. This anticipated follow-on to MLM Volume I, formally done in 2004 – 2006, will start with the training of Associate Trainers on 15 October 2008 and publicly launch in January

2009.

NOTE: the 15 October training is to train Associate Trainers, it is the level above the normal MLM Notebook trainings that you attended with Volume 1.


What is MLM Volume II?
This is the second Volume in the MLM curriculum. Just like in MLM Volume I, Volume II consists of a six Notebooks, each containing six lessons.

Volume II Notebooks are each based on best-selling books by John C. Maxwell;
Notebook 1: TODAY MATTERS
Notebook 2: WINNING WITH PEOPLE
Notebook 3: THE 360 DEGREE LEADER
Notebook 4: THINKING FOR A CHANGE
Notebook 5: FAILING FORWARD
Notebook 6: TALENT IS NEVER ENOUGH

Though based on the books, the Notebooks have been adapted into the MLM strategy which includes the three areas that we believe are critical to ongoing leadership development:
Spiritual Formation: Integrity, Ethics, Humility, Motives, Core Values.
Skill Formation: Developing People, Communicating, Team Building, Problem Solving.
Strategic Formation: Effective Planning, Priorities, Vision.

How does it work?
A brief history: MLM Volume I (from 2004 – 2006) was introduced through regular events (every six months) across southern Africa. Each of these main events was arranged by Equip SA and saw international speakers (Associate Trainers) teach leaders. These leaders then took it one level further, teaching those in their circle of influence.

The next step: MLM Volume II will build on this leadership foundation and take it one step further by training our own Associate Trainers (ATs) to teach these leaders again in the next volume.

Circle of influence

The launch training on 15 October, known as the Square One event, is to train these ATs, who will in turn take MLM Volume II to the trainers.
The free workbooks and motivational book gifts are not part of MLM Volume II. You will have access and rights to the workbook pdf's though to make your own copies, if needed. Workbooks will also be available to purchase.

What is an Associate Trainer?
A prospective AT needs to have a 'two-tier' teaching potential. This means an AT must have access to a structure that allows him/her to train multiple trainers, who in turn can train leaders.

ATs are trained on invitation or application and the Square One event is not open to the public. After qualifying, an AT will facilitate own public trainings in locally organised, self funded events. Equip SA offers support in training  equirements and marketing events, where possible. A trained and certified AT is qualified to train all six the Volume II notebooks. There may be catch up events held, from time to time if necessary. Notebooks 1 – 6 will then be supplied at the timing discretion of Equip and the AT can take it at the pace that best suites its region. Thus, the ATs determine the pace and flow of this Volume II.
