Global leadership initiative for schools launched in Kenya

Kenyan schools will now be able to access a leadership programme that seeks to empower primary and secondary school children with leadership and life skills. This follows the launch of the Franklin Covey's Leader in Me Programme.

Rooted in Dr Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, the initiative is an everyday universal leadership development drive that creates a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader.

The programme, offered by Raiser Resource Group, provides a logical, sequential and balanced process to help schools proactively design the culture that reflects their vision of the ideal school.

"Our schools are focused on preparing our children academically such that life skills have been put on the back burner. This programme offers life skills that teach our children how to be independent and become self-sufficient," said Raiser Resource Group Chief Executive Ian Ng'ethe.

Globally, the initiative has been successfully implemented in more than 3,000 schools across 50 countries.
