My Cedar Riverside Journey to Brain Coyle Center
Kouzes and Posner stated, “You must unite your constituents around a common cause and connect with them as human beings.” Brain Coyle Center provides a platform for integrating low income minorities with this wonderful town called Cedar Riverside. The plethora of services they provide illustrates how they connect human beings to create an atmosphere of enriched community.
The tour at Brain Coyle Center has been a unique experience. There were a few knowns and a lot of unknowns.

I owe that program everything because it has taught me English and got rid of my accent (I do not know yet if that’s a good thing or not).

They guide the Cedar community to success and help create an atmosphere to grow diverse group of people. As Kouzes and Posner put it, they reinforce five practices of exemplary leadership: 1) model the way; 2) inspire a shared vision; 3) challenge the process; 4) enable others to act; and 5) encourage the heart. They each demonstrate those traits in their own unique way, and today they taught me that. Thank
