"Leadership is not about a title or a designation."  

This workshop will give you insights into what leadership means in the 21st century and the challenges of being a leader.  It will give you an opportunity to reflect on your own potential to lead and make a difference in the workplace.   

What students said:

This session was thought provoking and really got us to 'think' and question our taken-for-granted assumptions about what and who leaders are.

This session changed my unrealistic expectations about leaders.
