LeaderShape Institute is a four-day retreat that provides participants the opportunity for self-discovery in a community of their peers. The Institute helps individuals identify their values and develop a vision for something they care about through self-assessment, intensive small group discussions, team-building challenges, and more. Take time away from your usual routine and structured life as a student to reflect on the decisions you are making, and perhaps, choose to lead boldly in a new direction.
The Institute by LeaderShape will be held January 4-7th, 2022, at the Ford Center in Alberta, MI. Thanks to the support of donors, the program costs just $100 per student attendee – a cost that can be further subsidized by sponsorship here on campus. If you want to establish your definition of leadership, build confidence in the traits that make you a strong leader, and create a vision for the impact you want to have on the world – apply today: https://leadershape.org/Applications/Apply/3963.
