With a Doctorate in Education, Frank Siccone has lectured and taught classes at several universities including the Leadership Institute at Yale University, California State University-East Bay and San Bernardino, Saint Mary’s College, San Francisco State University, San Jose State University, University of California-Riverside, University of San Diego, and University of San Francisco (School of Education and School of Nursing). He
is the author of six books for teachers and administrators on the topic of
school change, as well as student self-esteem, responsibility and
motivation—some of which have been translated into Chinese, Czech, Russian, and
Spanish. His latest is entitled, Essential Skills for Effective School
Leadership.
Frank has presented workshops to teachers and administrators throughout the country, and has conducted youth leadership training for students and advisors from the United States, Russia, and South Africa. He has served on the Board of Directors of the National Council for Self-Esteem, the Advisory Council for the California Peer Counseling Association, and he chaired the San Francisco Task Force to Promote Self-Esteem and Personal and Social Responsibility. Frank Siccone and I go way back to the early 1970s when we were graduate students at the University of Massachusetts. Later, when we had both moved to California, Frank and I were presenters at a national self-esteem conference, and I had the opportunity to sit in on Frank's session. He gave one of the most insightful presentations on the power of personal responsibility that I had ever heard. Since then, I have always thought of Frank as the ultimate expert on this topic. As a result, I asked Frank to collaborate on a series of workshops for teachers. Later we also co-authored a book on the subject of self-esteem and responsibility. Every time we worked together I learned more and more about the principles for successful living that Frank teaches. His insights and reflections have been very helpful to me on my life's journey. |
