More Information About LeaderShape:

The LeaderShape Institute develops participants to "lead with integrity." The curriculum incorporates current leadership issues in such a way as to meet the developmental needs of young adults.

Effective leadership produces results — exceptional improvements not only in companies and organizations, but also in clubs and communities. Wherever you are, there's a need for you to lead.

The curriculum focuses on "take-home application" through the vehicle of a comprehensive and powerful Breakthrough Blueprint. By working through the project, each participant has an opportunity to engage himself/herself in reflection, planning, one-on-one interactions, small group feedback, and large group learning.

The LeaderShape Institute environment resembles a laboratory more than a formal classroom. Students are encouraged to practice new skills, give and receive feedback from peers and faculty, and risk new behaviors in a safe, supportive atmosphere. Everyone at The LeaderShape Institute is a teacher and everyone is a learner.

Distilled to the essential, The LeaderShape Institute works to help participants achieve four primary outcomes:

• To increase their commitment to acting consistently with core ethical values, personal values, and convictions.
• To increase their capability to develop and enrich relationships as well as to increase their commitment to respecting the dignity and contribution of all people.
• To embrace the belief in a healthy disregard for the impossible.
• To develop the capability to produce extraordinary results.
