The Cornell LeaderShape Institute is a dynamic, interactive, six-day residential program exposing students to aspects and issues related to leadership development. More than 4,500 college students from around the country have participated in The Institute at LeaderShape 's national center in Champaign, Illinois. It begins with participants engaging in self-reflection, and learning about the power of visions and goals.
Participants then create powerful visions for themselves and for their student organizations.
Overall, participants will explore personal characteristics, expand their understanding about leadership, meet and work with peers, and talk to current leaders of the College, University, and surrounding community. We are now reaping the benefits of the visions and the energy these students are sharing with friends, student organizations, faculty, and administrators. LeaderShape provided two excellent lead facilitators, and the remaining four facilitators were chosen from faculty, staff, and corporate representatives.
