Are you passionate about involving your school in leadership activities, global development issues and civic engagement? Does your school find it difficult to coordinate meaningful volunteer opportunities for your students to help them understand their role as global citizens in our world? Are you looking for a source of motivation to tap into your students' potential to be active change-makers in your community?
Leaders Today is excited to launch The We Generation!—an innovative speaking tour and leadership program that motivates young people to come together and create positive change for a better world.
Garry Norman and Erin Blanding are two of Leaders Today’s expert speakers. As they sweep across Canada and the United States during the 2006-2007 school year, they will tap into the leadership potential of young people and their ability to be agents of positive social change. At the heart of their message is their belief that young people today are the most powerful generation in history. The We Generation! tour motivates young people in school groups, universities, colleges and conferences to create the world that they envision by recognizing their power, exploring their unique talents and coming together for the betterment of all.
The We Generation! speaking tour involves
- a one-hour keynote address that inspires students with personal stories, multimedia and music to realize that they have the power to bring people together and to a make positive difference in the lives of their peers, both locally and globally
- a dynamic and interactive leadership workshop for 20 young leaders in which youth are provided with the skills and the knowledge they need to become leadership ambassadors in their school and community
