Quality School Leaders Symposia's Featured Speaker Focuses on Preparing Student for the 21st Century Workplace

LAKELAND, FL (January 07, 2005) - Dr. Willard R. Daggett's enlightening, entertaining and motivating messages have helped his listeners to view education differently by challenging assumptions about the purposes, benefits and effectiveness of American schools. He will be presenting his message, "Technology in the 21st Century Workplace: Preparing Students for a Changing World", Tuesday, January 25, 2005, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. with coffee and registration from 8:00 a.m. - 8:30 a.m. The event will be held at the Lake Mirror Center, Theatre at 121 South Lake Avenue, Lakeland, FL 33801. Dr. Daggett will demonstrate how dramatically technology will change the workplace and, more importantly, the skills and knowledge graduates will need in order to be successful. This free presentation is part of the Quality School Leaders Symposia. Area educators and community members are invited and encouraged to attend.

Dr. Daggett, Ed.D., President of the International Center for Leadership in Education, is recognized worldwide for his proven ability to move education systems towards more rigorous and relevant skills and knowledge for all students. Dr. Daggett inspires his audiences to embrace what is best about our educational system and to make the necessary changes to meet the needs of all students in the 21st century.

This motivational event is sponsored by the USF Lakeland, Polk County Schools, and Polk Business for WorldClass Education Quality School Leaders Symposia. The QSLS is a collaboration of area businesses with local educators in a unique partnership geared toward enriching and expanding the skills of school administrators. Seed money for the Symposia was granted through the Wallace Reader's Digest Ventures in Leadership grant, provided to USF Lakeland for an Administrator's Institute.
