Oh Canada

-
We're very excited to announce a positive progression internationally.  We have procured http://www.kidlead.ca/ and are moving toward an agreement with an agency in Canada, which will provide national training curriculum and resources from KidLead.  At the same time, we're finalizing an agreement with a entity in Malaysia to provide our training resources for that country and Singapore.  On Tuesday (Nov. 30, 2010), I fly to Thailand to introduce our work to the premier executive training company in that region, which could expand their services to leaders of all ages. 

The idea of a global movement to identify and develop leaders while they're moldable is quite exciting.  Given technology and the mindset that we're all in the same village, ultimately, there's no reason why we can't bring KidLead's expertise to the world.  What better way to raise effective and ethical leaders who'll provide significant influence to a future that desperately needs them as we face huge changes.  Leaders are change agents.  We welcome your help as we network more regions and champions to spur on this movement.  We'll keep you in touch with our work as we progress.

Launch of Young Leader Feeder Video Training Series

While I love teaching leadership and org change at amazing institutions such as USC, the Naval Postgraduate School and Pepperdine, I know that if we're going to fill the leadership pipeline with effective and ethical leaders, we need to get to them while they're moldable, not moldy. Thus, I've started a free training video series for teen leaders called Young Leader Feeder. They're 2-5 minute PowerPoint videos with age-sized content I teach my MBA students. Here's a link to the first 2 and please pass the word:  https://youtu.be/NkTlx8cawBY  (EQ: Self-Awareness)  https://youtu.be/ILRCbfFKOSE  (EQ: Self-Management)

Love Principals Like Mrs. Bartlow

This morning, I began meeting with principals and school administrators, introducing them to LeadYoung Institute. Although I've now sent emails to all public and private schools in the Conejo Valley, I'm curious as to who the early adopters are. My first meeting was with Mrs. Carey Bartlow, Principal of Cypress Elementary School in Newbury Park. I was very impressed with her recognition of students who were social catalysts as well as understanding the difference between leading and administrating.  I've found this is more rare than we'd like to think among educators. So while I'm excited to meet more local educators, I'm very impressed with Principal Bartlow. No doubt Cypress has a bright future with her leadership. http://www.conejousd.org/cypress/Home.aspx

  Exciting Changes Coming Soon We are gearing up for an exciting reboot as we pivot to KidLead 2.0. Our impetus the last 15 years focused on training educators and children-youth workers to license LeadYoung curricula. Our new focus involves empowering parents to develop the leadership potential in their own children. In 2024, we will launch KidLead Academy, a digital course designed to train moms and dads -- perhaps even some grandpa's and grandma's -- to invest in future leaders. We will hit FaceBook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube. Stay tuned. Exciting changes are coming soon!
