STUDENT LEADERSHIP KEYNOTE

“Julie is more than a presenter; she is a connector.”

^{_{— GAYE ANNE MCDONALD, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, MAINE ADMINISTRATORS OF SERVICES FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES}}

We live in a time when the mental health of our students is needing more attention and support than ever.

With a world-wide pandemic and increased divisiveness in our society at large, students are suffering from the effects of isolation. Isolation is the mistress of poor mental health; how do we help our peers heal from its effects? By doing exactly the opposite of isolation.

We make connection a top priority in our schools. We become the kind of student leaders our peers want to follow anywhere.

There has never been a more important time to grow into the kind of student leader that our peers know they can count on. Students need authentic student leaders who can shape a school culture that fosters authenticity, trust, and connection.

Julie Lee will empower your student leadership audience with the tools necessary to bring humanity into their leadership and to become the kind of leader we all want to follow.

"The Connected Student Leader"

The idea that popularity is what students want most from school is outdated. The priority has become what they need, which is a positive school culture where they feel seen, appreciated, and trusted. How do we become the kind of student leader that can foster this kind of authenticity? Targeting specific skills that foster connection. Creating trust by modeling how to be a genuine team player. Understanding what matters most to our peers. The result? We expect improvement in mental health and top performance to be at an all-time high as our students thrive in schools where they know they belong.
