START (Laurie Bodine)

We know all too well that in today's high pressure, high stakes culture, childhood for many has become a relentless quest to build a competitive resume for top college admissions. As a result, well-being hangs in the balance for students-and their parents-in every college prep community, while in our rapidly changing, global economy, new grads are struggling to get started in record numbers.Despite the cultural crush, about 10% of kids fare well in school and in life. Intrinsically motivated, emotionally intelligent, and capable, they link success with meaning and joy as they take the lead in their lives.In START, Laurie Bodine has brought together cutting-edge research in academics, business leadership, and child development to reveal the secrets of the 10% and to provide an alternative to today’s high-pressure environment. In five straightforward steps, START shows you how to optimize individual and family dynamics to create a culture of leadership and engagement where kids are inspired to develop the attributes and master the skills that are essential to succeed in a highly competitive, uncertain world."We have seen the impact START makes on developing essential leadership skills while building social and emotional capacity and connection. We have used START to unite our parents, teachers, and students with a common leadership language and process to navigate their lives effectively."Bill Brady, Leadership Director, The Haverford SchoolИздательство Laurie BodineМягкий переплетОбъем - 128 стр.Формат - 205x260 мм.ISBN 9780988359949Год издания: 2015
