Through the dynamic lessons, role-plays, shared vision building, and sticky language of Lead ‘Em Up Classroom student engagement skyrockets. Lead ‘Em Up Classroom produces interactivity and connection at higher levels than traditional school curriculums.

In this episode, we unpack the popular phrase “I lead by example.” A response we hear from many young leaders. But the truth is, it’s not enough. While modeling behavior is important, real leadership requires communication, accountability, correction, vision, and presence. Many fall into the trap of thinking their actions alone will inspire change, but leadership demands more. Lock in as we break down why leading by example is only the starting point, not the full playbook.
