Global Leadership Program
Want to be part of this exciting program this spring quarter? Discover your unique leadership potential. Cultivate the leader you want to be. Be part of an international - US student cohort and become global ready.
The Global Leadership Program will awaken your unique leadership potential. It will provide you with opportunities to gain insights into your leadership skills and intercultural beliefs through inventory questionnaires, strengths assessments, and guided self-discovery activities. You will be encouraged to analyze your individual results and to develop a practical personal development plan, which you will implement, use to review your progress, and revise when needed. In addition, you will attend three cross-cultural events and participate in one service learning activity.
“This program looks into the core of one’s leadership potential from various aspects and demonstrates how gaining leadership skills is not only about becoming a leader but also about discovering yourself.” - Chia-I Chu (Joyce)
You will receive a Global Leadership certificate upon successful completion of the program. This credential will reflect well upon you in many ways:
- The Personal Statement letter when you submit your university transfer application
- Your resume when you apply for a job in the future
During the program you will:
- Be part of a global community while studying with international and US students
- Attend a one hour welcome session and four three-hour modules: Cross Cultural Communication, Leadership Strengths, Full Potential Explorations, and Outward Mindset
- Participate in three cultural activities
- Give back to the community through a service learning activity

“To be a leader is to initially learn about one another, collaborate, and work together in spite of our differences to achieve a communal goal. Through this collaboration and other activities provided by the program, I have built new friendships and opened up myself to an even larger sense of diversity through sharing ideas and opinions with my teammates on particular topics.”
