Reframing Leadership for Student School Leaders - (In person)
Leadership is not about a badge, a title or standing on a stage. Leadership is about creating environments where people feel safe to contribute, confident to learn and courageous enough to speak up. This program equips student leaders with the skills to influence culture, support others and create lasting positive impact in their schools, communities and future workplaces.
In an age of constant digital connection, teaching teenagers’ effective communication skills has never been more important. While young people are highly connected through social media, messaging apps and online platforms, many have fewer opportunities to develop the face-to-face communication skills needed to build relationships, navigate conflict, provide feedback and express their thoughts with confidence.
By learning how to listen actively, communicate respectfully, and engage in meaningful conversations, students develop the social and emotional capabilities essential for success at school, in the workplace and in life.
Strong communication skills also help young people build trust, foster inclusion, strengthen wellbeing and create environments where others feel safe to contribute and speak up.
Who should attend
Reframing Leadership program is designed for school leaders or aspiring school leaders.
For example:
School prefects, captains
Students who want a leading edge after graduation

-
The Reframing Leadership Program draws on the evidence-based principles of psychological safety, feedback, coaching and courageous conversations to develop student leaders who are equipped to make a meaningful impact within their school and beyond.

Students leave with practical skills they can apply immediately in:
Student leadership roles
Sporting teams
Group projects
Community service
Employment
Future careers
-
The program aligns with schools' priorities around:

Wellbeing

Workplace Conversations: The Essentials
eLearning
