Presenters:

Keith Hawkins: “Standing for Something”  During Keith’s presentation students will understand why standing for something is so important. When you think of the saying “standing for something” the first thing to come to mind is values. Character is next. Once a person develops strong values and character they become an effective leader. Effective leaders know how to build relationships with people and through those relationships people become believers. Students will walk away from Keith’s presentation feeling in powered and knowing that they can make a difference.

PhillyD: “The 4 C’s of Successful Leadership” The foundation of Phil’s presentation is based on the quote “They will not remember what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.” This intimate program is full of emotion, humour and truth. PhillyD will challenge each participant to take a look at their personal leadership; because how you lead your life is how you will lead others. Phil’s 4-C’s are CONTROL, COMPASSION, CONFIDENCE and COURAGE.

Brent Dickson: “Top Ten Student Leadership Ideas” (and perhaps some bonus ideas if you are real good). Brent will share with you leadership ideas he has created, modified, or outright copied and then run in his school. These include ideas about staff appreciation, service, and just plain crazy and fun activities. Find out how Australian Hairy Frog racing can bring a school together. Ideas from Brent’s presentation can be modified to meet your needs and become a part of your plans right away or next year.
