We want to introduce someone to you who knows all about resilience. You can read more about Traci’s amazing work in our recent case study, however today we want to highlight LaCheryl Coleman as the real hero of this case study. In 2019, LaCheryl became the leader of Legacy Early College, a school that was 3 points away from being an “F-rated” school. 💔 Instead of giving up, LaCheryl did her homework.📝 She called Traci and expressed her desire to invest in cultural repair and in understanding her faculty better. Together, Traci and LaCheryl decided that CliftonStrengths might be a good addition to address the needs of the LEC team and have grown available resources for the LEC team year after year. 🎉 This year will be the sixth year Traci will work with the LEC teams. Legacy Early College recently celebrated being just ONE point shy of an A-rating. 🎉 While LaCheryl commented on Traci’s gift for making the content fresh and relevant for her staff year after year, we want to comment on LaCheryl’s ability to… ➡️ Recognize a problem ➡️ Seek out a solution ➡️ Stick with growth over complacency ➡️ Not. Give. Up. With LaCheryl’s initiative, she turned a failing school into a success through workshops & collaboration — effectively changing lives and futures. In pictures, the world now sees a group of underserved kids with real potential. We see a picture of a leader that has made — and is making — a real difference. 💪 LaCheryl is the epitome of RESILIENCE and we applaud her today. 👏 #ResilientLeadership #StrongHumanCapital #HumanPotentialAdvisors #LeadershipDevelopment

The Best Graduation Speech of 2024 Is Absolutely Obvious, and It All Comes Down to Just 1 Word. A rainy day and an abbreviated speech, but some very useful lessons were shared. Robert Hale Jr.'s address to the graduates of the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth was truly memorable. He gave $1,000 in cash to each graduate, with $500 for them to keep and $500 to give away to someone in need. Certainly, giving money to graduates is a sure way to win hearts. However, the speech was more than just a generous gesture. From humble beginnings of washing dishes to becoming a dot-com billionaire, Hale shared his journey of success, failure, and redemption. It's a powerful story of resilience and giving back to the community. Watch the video at the bottom of the article to witness Hale's inspiring message unfold. It's a reminder that success is not just about personal achievements but also about lifting others up. Kudos to Robert Hale Jr. for an impactful and memorable graduation speech. https://lnkd.in/ezuMgb_N (skip video to 2:25)

Picture this: my first job out of the gate was at the Nelson Mandela Institute for Rural School. Fresh off my stint as the first female President of the SRC at Fort Hare University, I was ready to dive into the world of innovative thinking with this stellar team. And oh, what a ride it was! Now, let me take you back to one unforgettable adventure. We were on a mission to visit schools in the rural heartland, and boy, did we encounter some wild scenes. Deep in the forests of Mqanduli, we stumbled upon a school that was, well, more of a jungle gym than an actual building. Prefab structures were the name of the game, but this particular one had a surprise in store: asbestos. Yes, you heard that right – the stuff of nightmares straight out of an Erin Brockovich flick. But wait, it gets better (or worse, depending on your perspective). As we cautiously ventured into the classrooms, we learned that the real danger wasn't just the asbestos – it was the snakes. Apparently, these slithery friends liked to cozy up in the insulation when things got toasty in the afternoons. Needless to say, our interviews were cut short as we high-tailed it out of there faster than you can say "snake charmer." Jokes aside, that experience sparked a fire in me to question the very foundation of our education system. Are we really equipping our kids with the tools they need to conquer the world? Are we making the most of our resources to ensure meaningful learning experiences? These are the questions that keep me up at night – and I'm betting I'm not alone. So, where are the leaders with the big ideas? Who's ready to shake things up and ensure that every child has access to quality education? The clock is ticking, and it's high time we start hearing some answers. Are you with me? 🔥 #BTWYRU #Voting #education #EducationRevolution #InnovativeLeadership #SnakesInSchools
