Jeff Veley

On Wednesday, October 27th, LWC Intermediate had a guest speaker who delivered a fantastic message on conflict resolution.  Jeff Veley spoke about his troubles growing up and how he learned to manage those that were not nice to him.  Through a peace sign, he taught students to remember two things when dealing with people that confront us in a negative way.  #1.  Don't get upset and #2 Treat everyone with kindness.  He communicated the importance of using those two strategies to handle squabbles.

His message has reached over one million people and he has been featured on ABC, NBC, FOX, and TV Chile. 

Jeff is the recipient of two international awards and is recognized by the United Nations as a Peace Ambassador for effectiveness in conflict resolution.
