How to teach leadership in the classroom

In this video, Brainscape’s founder and CEO, Andrew Cohen, talks about how educators and institutions can teach kids leadership by incorporating this fundamental skill into mainstream school activities. In other words: how we can foster leadership skills by giving students 10 times more leadership opportunities in class itself.

In this video, we discuss:
0:00​ - Intro
0:15 - What’s wrong with the current system and why it’s failing most students
2:05 - Teaching leadership in schools: appoint clear leaders of group projects
3:08 - How to give equal leadership opportunities (and avoid lazy team members)
4:22 - Using the “360 Degree Review” approach in school
5:00 - Why you should be giving your students real leadership responsibilities

We hope this video helps you understand the importance of teaching better leadership through hands-on activities and projects, rather than through traditional passive means. And whether you’re an educator, parents, or student, we hope you have the tools to rise to the challenge of that leadership. (Hey, don’t forget to give our video the thumbs up!)
