Summary

Leadership is hard, and students are not taught tools regarding how to be a good leader. Too many times student leaders are propelled into leadership positions without proper training or knowledge, which creates Imposter Syndrome and fills them with self-doubt. Leadership Literacy introduces students to the INSPIRED Leadership Framework, which is a tool to enhance leadership knowledge, to improve leadership skills, and to develop stronger leadership habits so they can create positive outcomes. The framework highlights that student leaders should be Introspective, Nimble, Service-Oriented, Purposeful, Influential, Relational, Emotionally intelligent, and Determined. This book provides the foundation for improving a student's leadership journey and is an essential guide to transform F-bombs into outcomes.
