Leadership is more than just a noun; it is an action verb. Many people mistakenly believe leadership is tied to a position of authority. However, true leaders recognize that leadership begins long before they are given a job or win an election.
In this discussion, participants will explore various leadership styles, reflect on the traits that influence how leaders are perceived, and share their experiences working with both effective and ineffective leaders. This discussion will be helpful for students who want to become more effective at leading themselves and their peers. Formal leadership positions (i.e., IUP Ambassador, Crimson Guide, resident assistant, Supplemental Instruction leader, Student Government Association member, or member of another student organization) are not required. All students are welcome.
