Empowering Educators and Students: Adopt the “Leader In Me” Program at Your School

If you want small changes, work on your behavior; if you want quantum-leap changes, work on your paradigms.

– Stephen R. Covey


ACTIVITY

Leader in Me is based on a theory of change known as the See-Do-Get Cycle. When you change the way you See things, it influences what you Do and the results you Get.

Educators begin to see their role, student potential, and the purpose of school culture in a new way.

The Leader in Me experience begins with a whole new paradigm for education. Educators rediscover their passion through Leader in Me as it redirects their focus back to a deeper understanding of student achievement.

The Framework provides a unique approach to integrating highly effective practices throughout a school’s culture.

 

Instead of focusing on academic measures alone, Leader in Me embodies a holistic approach to education, redefining how schools measure success. This approach empowers educators with effective practices and tools to:

  • teach leadership to every student
  • create a culture of student empowerment
  • align systems to drive results in academics
