Student Leadership Lab: Recent Episodes
Eric Bowling
Schools are facing increasing pressure to develop student leaders. To meet this demand, most schools have leadership development programs, but what they really need is a school-wide leadership culture that is integrated into every facet of the student's experience. Without a leadership culture, many students with leadership potential are missed and their leadership skills remain underdeveloped.
