“Let people live in your heart.”
For a remarkable lesson in leadership and inspiration, the award-winning documentary Children Full of Life introduces us to teacher Toshiro Kanamori and his fourth grade class of students in Tokyo. He teaches his students how to live a happy life and how to care for other people. It’s worth setting aside the time to view this 40 minute video, which explores themes of empathy, responsibility, loss and grief, bullying and more. It’s one of those videos that will stick with you but be warned – it is very moving. The film will be particularly meaningful to educators but also offers lessons for anyone with an interest in leadership and emotional intelligence.
