About Leadership Week
Leadership Week is built upon the belief of preparing confident and capable student leaders, We do this by forming programs around the Clemson Leader Practice of Excellence: Collaboration, Sustaining Legacy, Communication, Strategic Planning, Building Community, and Personal Growth. Our program that accomplishes this is Leadership week with the goals of
- Engage students in a diverse presentation of leadership practices, opportunities and styles,
- Expose students to an array of campus and community leaders,
- Celebrate student leaders and campus organizations engaging in leadership work,
- Educate students about inclusive leadership practices,
- And, create a fun and engaging environment to talk about, celebrate and challenge leadership practices, styles and opportunities.
Questions? Reach out to Christopher Spellman.
