Jeffrey Leiken has been involved in camping for over 30 years. He’s been a Camper, a Counselor, an Administrator and Camp Consultant now to over 100 Summer Camps in North America. He’s helped these camps train their Counselors, enhance their programs, coach their Leaders and raise the bar of professionalism and care for children.
Jeffrey has published numerous articles in Camping Magazine, and has twice been awarded highest honors for the value of his contributions. He has presented hundreds of sessions at all the major American Camp Association Conferences, and many of the regional ones. His two workshops for Camp Leaders – Leadership Communication In Camp™ and The Advanced Counseling Training For Camp Professionals™ - have propelled many Camp professionals to significantly higher levels of success and have received rave reviews.
Known for his deeply moving stories of the impact camp can make on a child’s life, he draws on his experience not just in Camping, but also in his 20+ years of mentoring youth and young adults. He is the legitimate voice who truly lives this work, knows how to inspire others with authenticity and consistently delivers true depth and substance.
