"Proactive people focus their efforts on their Circle of Influence. They work on the things they can do something about. The nature of their energy is positive, enlarging and magnifying causing their circle of influence to increase"

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,

  • and align systems to drive results in ACADEMICS.

​

What is The Leader in Me?

The Leader in Me is a whole-school transformation model that acts like the operating system of a computer it improves the 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.

What are the habits?
