ExchangeEveryDay Past Issues

Do you know someone who has impacted the world of early care and education? Maybe that someone is you! Exchange Press identifies and supports leaders in all facets of our field through the Exchange Leadership Initiative (ELI). We are looking for applicants for the 2023 cohort of Exchange Leaders:

• Let’s empower those we see lead, encouraging them to acknowledge their impact as changemakers, mentors, and role models.
• Let’s intentionally consider diversity and equity, inviting our colleagues who may have been marginalized due to systemic inequities.
• Let’s reach out to leaders who may not yet recognize this call to action is for them.

“As I go through doors of opportunity, I want to ensure that I leave the door open behind me with a welcome mat for other leaders to join me. I am a firm believer in networking and collaborating with professionals who have the same passion for young children and their families as I do. I recognize that others have left the door open for me and have provided me opportunities to challenge myself to do things that I’ve never done before. As a result of those opportunities, I have grown as a professional and a leader within the field of early education. I am committed to empowering and equipping educators and leaders. It brings me joy to see others win and reach their goals. If we all work together to support each other, we can have a positive impact and ensure that the early childhood education profession is seen as a profession of excellence.”
—Lauren Bond, Exchange Leader 2022
