With this in mind, Landmark

Christian School will begin next fall implementing a plan to develop an

intentional leadership culture that spans the curriculum.

"This nationwide crisis

has caused us to evaluate our leadership training at Landmark and prompted

us to begin the process of creating an intentional leadership culture,"

said Mike Titus, Landmark's dean of students. "The word culture is

important, we do not want leadership training to be something we do, but

rather we want leadership training to be who we are. Anyone who knows

anything about Chick-fil-A knows that great service is not what Chick-fil-A

does, it is what they are. Chick-fil-A has developed a culture of great

service. In the same way, at Landmark, we want to develop a culture of

great leadership."

This month, a group of faculty

members and key leaders from the Landmark community are meeting to (1)

define leadership Landmark style, and (2) identify Landmark's leadership

core values. From there, faculty and staff will receive leadership training

in an effort to intentionally "weave" leadership development

into all areas of the school; that students would develop leadership skills

in the classroom, on the stage, on the court, and in every area of the

Landmark educational experience.

"With every crisis comes

great opportunities and Landmark definitely sees this as a great opportunity,"

said Titus. "What better way to meet this national cry for leadership

than with kids who can not only lead our country and our companies, but

who will do it in a way that impacts the world for Jesus Christ?"
