Introduction:

We believe that leaders are more "made” than "born.” Current leadership research indicates that there are few genetic characteristics that influence one's ability to become a leader. Our role in the program is not to teach one how to become a leader, but to help one learn how to become a more effective leader. From our perspective, leadership is a life-long journey. This course can help you acquire the knowledge, skills, feedback, and opportunities necessary for personal growth.
