Developing Life-Ready Leaders
Leader in Me is a whole-school transformational model that empowers students, staff and families with the mindset, knowledge and skills to be life-ready leaders. This unique approach to student-led learning applies effective social and emotional skills in real-life situations.
Principals and district leaders report the number one challenge in educating students today is the escalation in social-emotional and behavioral health needs as well as the emotional well-being of staff.
Leader in Me coaches work directly with school, district and community leaders to:
- enhance efficacy of administrators
- build leadership capacity among faculty and staff
- encourage all students to see themselves as leaders
- adapt to a remote-learning environment
Evidence-Based results
Improved:
- School culture
- Student attendance
- Behavior
- Academic achievement

“The Leader in Me program is an excellent program for promoting confidence and leadership skills in students. I’ve seen first-hand how a student can blossom.”
