Elizabeth English: 我校学生对现有领导者的不足之处有着敏锐的洞察力，但他们仍然对自身改变现状的能力抱有希望。他们深受环境危机、政治两极分化和缺乏领导力的影响，承受着巨大的精神创伤和压力。然而，他们并没有因此而气馁，反而充满了愤怒和改变现状的决心。学校的责任不仅在于帮助学生认识到这些问题，更在于培养他们的批判性思维、文明对话能力和情绪管理能力，使他们能够以理性有效的方式参与社会变革。 Simon: 在与Elizabeth English校长的对话中，我深刻地感受到年轻一代对未来领导力的期许。他们不仅关注自身权益，也关注社会责任，希望领导者能够解决气候变化、枪支暴力等重大社会问题。同时，他们也对上一代的消费主义和政治冷漠感到失望。Elizabeth English校长在学校中所做的努力，例如培养学生的自我调节能力、文明对话能力和人际交往能力，以及与家长合作，共同维护学校的价值观，都为培养未来优秀的领导者提供了宝贵的经验。

Shownotes Transcript

When we want wisdom, we turn to people older than us. But there is a lot to be learned from younger generations too.

Elizabeth English knows this. She’s the head of one of the most innovative schools in the country, The Archer School for Girls and has spent her career working with -- and learning from -- younger generations.

We sat down to talk about: the problems facing parents today, why kids need and thrive from rules, boundary setting, phone addictions, and how her students make her hopeful for the future.

This is...A Bit of Optimism.
