New York Edge leadership programs focus on key skills and perspectives like effective communication, self-confidence, active listening, and coming to consensus. Students learn to work together towards shared goals, and in the process they use their voices, express their choices, and identify solutions that work for everyone. In the process, they come to understand their own skills and identities as leaders. Because leadership is a skill that must be developed through practice, New York Edge gives students opportunities to shape the programs they participate in.
