The Gardner Carney Leadership Institute's, (gcLi) mission makes clear that there is an inextricable connection between leadership and citizenship. We are committed to the idea that leadership must be cultivated. The healthy, effective, and benevolent functioning of classrooms, sports teams, schools, local communities, and entire nations depends upon it. Leadership is an active struggle, an exercise of character and values, a willingness to be in dialogue with diverse viewpoints, an ability to take risks and to engage wholeheartedly and uncomfortably with groups. To do it well, one must be willing to be in a lifelong journey to become more self-aware. In short, the path to leadership and thus to citizenship consists of all the skills and behaviors that the gcLi has taught since its inaugural Leadership Lab 2005. In my view, never has such training been more relevant. gcLi's Mission: Educating Teachers to Teach Leadership to Students.

Episode 223
Kenny Chilton is a third grade teacher at St. Andrew's Episcopal school in Austin, Texas and a 2002 gcLi Leadership Lab graduate.
Kenny says, "for nearly a decade I have served children in engaging classrooms, on chaotic playgrounds, on terrifying stages, and in tender conversations on quiet benches. I aspire to recognize the inherent goodness in every student, see and value their unique identities, and build leaders who will inherit and make a world in which they see hopeful prospects." He believes this is possible in part through leadership that focuses on team work and team building.
