Abstract
The body of research has helped to create a newly adapted Mentor-Apprentice Program (MAP) Handbook, for The Haudenosaunee Mentor-Apprentice Language and Leadership Development Program (HMALLDP), which is focused on raising the proficiency of adult second language learners, while also providing them with leadership skills. The handbook developed through this research acts as a first step in the development of a Mentor-Apprentice Leadership Development Program.
The methodology and framework in which the research was conducted are from a Haudenosaunee worldview, and draw upon the established means in which leadership was, and continues to be developed by that specific society. Indigenous research methodologies are the foundational approaches in which this work has been rooted in, and thus this paper has relied upon the Indigenous scholars who have paved the way for this type of research. It is through a Haudenosaunee lens that the research compiled here is examined.
