Supporting The Leader in Me Initiative
How can parents support the school’s leadership initiative?
“Each time we are asked we give the same answer “Use the 7 Habits language at home.”
The Leader in Me is a whole-school transformation model that acts like the operating system of a computer — it improves performance of all other programs. Based on The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People®, The Leader in Me produces transformational results such as higher academic achievement, fewer discipline problems, and increased engagement among teachers and parents. Better yet, The Leader in Me equips students with the self-confidence and skills they need to thrive in the 21st century economy.
Why is it good for our children?
- Global Awareness- Teaches skills needed to be successful in a global society.
- Personal leadership – being accountable for actions and attitudes
- Initiative and self-discipline, making healthy choices
- Ability to work well with others, cross-culturally and in teams
- Effective communication and listening skills
- Ability to solve complex problems and creative thinking skills
- Inspires greater self-confidence with a belief that every child can be a “leader of their own life”, has unique talents and can make a difference
As the school year unfolds, students are learning the language and meaning of the 7 Habits. By hearing the same language at home and at school, you send your children a strong message that what you believe is important and that we are all on the same team—the team that wants to help all of us succeed. When parents and schools support one another, the sky is the limit!
