Rosalind Wiseman Speaking Topics

  • Media Literacy (for educators or students)

  • Social Justice & Ethical Leadership

  • Queen Bee Moms & Kingpin Dads: Navigating Relationships with the Adults in Your Child's Life

    Speaker Rosalind Wiseman shines a light on the lives of today's parents, too many of whom feel trapped in "Perfect Parent World," a place in which a few parents set all the rules and the perceived standards for parental involvement are virtually impossible to achieve. It's a world that has parents reliving the traumas and dilemmas of their own youth • and learning, to their surprise, that those decades-old experiences profoundly influence the way they interact with the professionals and parents who play significant roles in their children’s lives.

    Wiseman offers practical strategies and scripts for handling the difficult situations that inevitably arise in parenthood.

  • Queen Bees & Masterminds

    In this presentation, Rosalind Wiseman issues a call to action to transform the way we speak to and about young people. She'll pull back the curtain on what's really going on between boys and girls and why they can be so reluctant to ask adults for help. She'll share how boys' and girls' social group dynamics influence their interactions and offer step-by-step advice on how to teach young people to treat each other with dignity. She'll also give common-sense suggestions about how to deal with the frequent struggles between teens and their parents—from video games and social networking to communication breakdowns. By the end of the presentation, Wiseman will have provided concrete strategies for any parent, educator, or professional who works with children and teens, and participants will walk away with positive ways to impact their community. This presentation can be tailored to both student and adult audiences, factoring in any specifics that should be addressed within your community.

  • Queen Bees & Wannabes: Teaching Social Competency in Middle & High School Students

    Speaker Rosalind Wiseman presents a general overview of the philosophy and practices of her Owning Up curriculum and her book, the New York Times bestseller Queen Bees and Wannabes: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip, Boyfriends & Other Realities of Adolescence. This keynote is an interactive multimedia presentation that shows how cliques, bullying, and social hierarchies among children and adults can be placed in a larger context of social justice. Wiseman provides concrete, common sense strategies for any educator or professional who works with children, teens, and parents so that all participants can walk away from the presentation with positive ways to impact their community. This presentation can be tailored to both student and adult audiences, factoring any specifics that should be addressed in your community.

  • Masterminds & Wingmen: Helping Your Son Cope with Schoolyard Power, Locker-Room Tests, Girlfriends & the New Rules of Boy World

    Rosalind Wiseman's new presentation is a call to action to transform the way we speak to and about boys. After 20 years of teaching teens and two years of working with over 200 teen editors to write Masterminds & Wingmen, Wiseman gives insights into what matters most to boys • their friendships, girls, and their relationships with adults. She'll pull back the curtain on what's really going on between boys and girls and why they can be so reluctant to ask adults for help. She'll share how boys' and girls' social group dynamics influence their interactions and offer step-by-step advice on how to teach young people to treat each other with dignity. She'll also give common-sense suggestions about how to deal with the frequent struggles between boys and their parents • from video games and social networking to communication breakdowns. By the end of the presentation, Wiseman establishes a roadmap for parents, educators, and communities to reach boys and help them grow into the best sons, brothers, friends, students, athletes, and boyfriends they can be.
