Compelling Why programming works to increase the number of students enrolled in academic and life skill enrichment programs in their schools and communities.
Business and community leaders serve as catalysts and role models who drive action during 1/2-day moderated discussions with middle and high school students of promise. Immediately following these Success Sessions (seminars), students attend an “Opportunity Fair” where they interface directly with representatives from school- and community-based organizations.
The Leadership Series includes five to eight facilitated discussions by Compelling Why staff industry volunteers on the leadership attributes of integrity, commitment, emotional intelligence and collaboration. The Compelling Why believes that a well-rounded education prepares youth for career success and includes these workforce survival skills not emphasized in core academic curricula or standardized tests.
