Teen Exec Student Leadership Research Project
What helps high school students succeed as leaders?
Teen Exec’s student leadership research project examined the experiences of 271 student leaders and 37 advisors from 44 states and the District of Columbia.
The research explored the challenges student leaders face, the support they receive, and what schools can do to make leadership a meaningful opportunity to grow. The findings led to 12 practical recommendations for strengthening student leadership experiences.
