Graduate students invited to apply for spring 2024 Grad Edge: Leadership Development Program
Graduate students who want to develop their leadership skills are encouraged to apply the spring 2024 Grad Edge: Leadership Development Program.
Grad Edge is a semesterlong program designed with the principles of shared exploration, self-reflection and application. Participants will work with leadership faculty as well as peers to take on relevant leadership challenges. They'll also be able to apply concepts of adaptive leadership to help come up with solutions.
The program was developed by the Staley School of Leadership and the Graduate School to give graduate students opportunities to examine their leadership mindset, identify and leverage leadership strengths, build upon the capacity to work and relate with others, and identify opportunities to be a source of change within and beyond the university. These skills are beneficial not only to graduate student academic progress, but also for the work, studies, student organizations and professional roles students are involved with. Those looking to venture beyond technical expertise when it comes to solving problems may find the program beneficial.
Please visit the program website for more information and to apply. The application deadline is Dec. 5.
