Leadership Development Workshops

Participate in the Student Leadership Challenge

The Student Leadership Challenge is a 7-session series open to all students interested in improving their leadership skills! This interactive workshop series is based on Kouzes and Posner’s The 5 Practices of Exemplary Leadership. The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership is a behavior-based model of leadership that offers benefits to students at all stages of leadership development and is based on over 30 years of leadership research.

Students who complete 5 sessions will receive a bluetooth speaker and wireless charger. For Fall 2026, the 7-session program will meet in Markim Lower Level on Tuesdays from 5:00-6:30 PM starting on September 22 (with no meeting October 13th). Students planning to attend are asked to sign up in advance.
