Emerging Leaders is a series of five meetings designed to facilitate leadership development in first-year students. This program is facilitated by the Office of the First-Year Experience and The Archer Center for Student Leadership Development to provide first-year students with an opportunity to develop a foundation of leadership skills and knowledge.

Over the course of our time together we will:

• Identify and understand key elements of effective leadership

• Develop and enhance skills such as decision making and communication

• Engage in individual and team based experiential activities

• Clarify personal values and link them to goals and vision

• Practice public speaking skills

• Build leadership practice through active reflection

• Articulate key learning and action steps.

• HAVE FUN!

Dates and schedule for 2010 have not yet been determined - check back later in the fall semester!
