Rayda Marquez & Erin Friedman, Co-Executive Director, Cultural Connections Global

Through our Personal Leadership Development series, we strive to help young people participate in global spaces with confidence. By focusing on character strengths, Glenda empowered our high school and university students to identify their unique talents and to understand that continual growth is within their power. Glenda’s facilitation of the series created a positive mindset shift in our students, helping them to engage in a self- assured manner in our program. As expressed in their reflections, they have already begun to apply these tools in other aspects of school, work, and life.
