Be BOLD
Teens have a HUGE impact on those around them. From acquaintances at school to close friends that are seen together virtually 24/7, each and every student has the power to influence their world in some way, shape, or form. Often times, students choose to ignore this ability and simply “blend in” with the norm. The truth is, boldness in action is required to create any major change in our lives. In this keynote, Scott will speak to your students about making BOLD choices that will affect their life and the lives of other students around them. Topics covered in this keynote include:
- Creating positive waves in your school/group.
- Making GOOD decisions.
- Standing FOR the right thing/ AGAINST the wrong thing.
- Choosing supportive friends.
- Using your personal creativity to both respect and help others around you.
- Answering the all-important question: What now?
Other Keynote Presentations
Scott has presented inspirational assemblies and keynotes on other topics such as standardized testing (making education REAL to your students), bullying, respect, school spirit, and many more. Whatever your school or organization needs, Scott is here to customize a speech for you and help in any way possible!
Popular Student Workshops
Leadershift (Self-defining leadership)
Unfortunately, leadership for many of today’s students entails the title “ASB ________, Senior class ________, or Student _________.” Instead of viewing the special leadership abilities we possess, we begin to mold ourselves to a standard that we feel is “normal.” By looking at the specific things that make us truly different and unique, we can create a greater form of leadership for ourselves than anyone could provide for us. In this workshop, your students will find themselves actively expressing and sharing their leadership talents with each other. By the end of this presentation, your leaders will be confident in their own abilities to ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE in leadership activities, regardless of the situation. **Great for student leadership classes/groups**
Say What?! (Public speaking with an attitude)
The current teen generation is one filled with constant text messaging, Twitter status updates, and Facebook wall posts. In the midst of this social networking explosion, the art of public speaking is one which seems lost. The fact of the matter is that we will all be faced with situations in our lives that call for us to step to the microphone. For teens, it’s not what to say that scares them, but how to say it effectively. In this interactive workshop, Scott will teach students to not only speak to an audience effectively, but to be confident in their own public speaking abilities!
Playing with a Purpose (running effective students activities)
Leadership and ASB classes are well seasoned in the art of planning student activities. In time though, the student body of any school can become disengaged and uninterested in most scheduled events. In this productive workshop, Scott will break down the activity-planning process with your leadership students to uncover the true meaning of school spirit. By the end of this workshop, your leaders will be well-equipped to plan activities that your entire school or organization will rave about for weeks on end.
