The Leader Shape Institute is an energizing and unique experience that will help students discover who they really are.
“Students that go to Leader Shape Institute will bring back a lifetime of skills learned and you will discover yourself and it will shape you into a great leader.” said Dr. Marlin Clark, dean of students.
The Leader Shape Institute helps participants explore not only what they want to do for a career, but also who they want to be.
Participants work together in small groups they call families. They learn how to help each other and be supportive. Then they develop a plan and return home with it and work on it for the next nine to 12 months.
Throughout the six days, the institute emphasizes the fact that you can make a difference as well as the importance of leading with integrity.
Each student that is chosen to go to Leader Shape Institute will receive a full scholarship that pays for travel, registration, transportation, lodging, meals, institute snacks, institute materials and a ten month follow up, where they will reflect on what they have done during those nine to 12 months.
Students will need to put a two hundred dollar deposit down when they apply.
