Providing students with a voice and life-ready skills
Change Your Paradigm​
Leader in Me is based on a model of change centred around mindset.​​ The premise is that when you change the way you see things, it influences what you do and the results you get.
Leader in Me has been described in many ways by the leaders that we partner with a process, a framework, a philosophy, a transformational programme. Ultimately Leader in Me takes a blended approach to delivering an experience that shifts your paradigm: it’s a new way of thinking that puts the student at the heart of the solution, providing them with a voice and life-ready skills, whilst focusing on culture, academics and leadership.
“If you want small changes, work on your behaviour; if you want quantum-leap changes, work on your paradigms.”​
Stephen R Covey​
