Student Leadership in Russia

July 07, 2020

Nikita Panfilov and Glasha Osipycheva, the newly elected Head Boy and Head Girl at Letovo School in Moscow, explain their fresh approach to student leadership in boarding school. Rather than see their proctor/prefect roles as padding in their resumes, Nikita and Glasha are drawing on the science of social connection and their pioneering experiences at Letovo (which welcomed its first students in 2018) to re-imagine their leadership responsibilities. Parents, professional educators, and corporate CEOs will be awestruck by the urbane demeanor and worldly insights of these two teens.
