"Que's message was powerful, and heartfelt! He really connects with the youth of today, and he motivates and inspires them to take action on their lives in that their current circumstances do not control their destiny. They can change their own course and be a success."
There’s a reason why Que Crane is one of the most sought-after academic life coaches and youth motivational speakers in the United States. His supernatural ability to connect with the audience through his relatable stories combined with simple actionable tools is needed. And Que Crane is just getting started.
Que paints a picture for teens of how, as long as we’re here, life never stops. One change leads to another. The question is: how do we respond to events outside of our control and take charge of the things within our control? Que talks in depth about how to embrace change.
The purpose in life is to find your gift. Que emphasizes how every individual was put here for a reason and helps students to recognize they’ve got something to offer that nobody else can give.
Challenges build character. Teens know this. But usually, inside of the moment, it’s not exactly clear how. With some prompting from Que, students will look back at some of the unexpected ways their biggest obstacles have yielded their greatest rewards.
Que impresses upon teens that it’s all of our jobs to make our schools a place where everyone feels welcome and appreciated. When students take an anti-bullying pledge, it’s the first step towards a better environment for all.
Que celebrates the fact that when teens work together, their individual strengths come into play, and they are greater than the sum of their parts. Que describes how this is the time in life for students to get a sense of how much they can accomplish through hard teamwork and dedication.
It’s leadership time! Que helps students realize how they have the opportunity to step up and demonstrate their ability to direct the efforts of a group. Together with Que, teens discuss what makes a successful leader.
"After his speech one of my male teachers stood up in front of the auditorium in tears. He was going to retire but decided to commit for three more years! Que reignited their desire to touch children and he reminded the teachers why they went into teaching." - Dr. Chandra, Jordan HS.
