It was a real privilege to welcome Alanna Fraser to work with our Form IV and Lower Sixth students on what it truly means to lead with purpose in a rapidly changing world. Across a series of engaging and thoughtfully structured workshops, students were challenged to explore their personal values and reflect on how these values shape their leadership style, strengths and decision-making. A key focus was helping them understand themselves as leaders first, before considering titles or roles.
The sessions also looked ahead, asking students to consider how leadership skills can be future proofed in the age of AI. Students reflected on which human skills matter most, how values-led leadership remains essential, and how adaptability, judgement and empathy will continue to define effective leadership in years to come. Working collaboratively, leadership teams thought about shared agreements rooted in their collective values, setting clear expectations for how they will work together and support one another. They also began to roadmap their goals, vision and priorities for their leadership journey, creating a strong foundation for the year ahead.
The workshops were reflective, practical and inspiring, leaving students with greater clarity, confidence and a shared sense of purpose. A valuable and timely experience for our young leaders as they start on their leadership journey for 2026.
