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?"
