What Every College Student Needs To Know®
About Leading People & Organizations

Based on the award-winning, best-selling bookThe Student Leadership Challenge® by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner, The Student Leadership Challenge Experience takes the wisdom of The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership® and nuclear-infuses it with the high-energy, engaging activities, and relevant facilitation style of Collegiate Empowerment to bring you a leadership event that will impact your student leaders like never before!

“Leadership is the art of mobilizing others to want to struggle for shared aspirations.” That’s what we know after 40 years of research. And now you’re asking: But HOW? Once students have developed the mindset and skill set of personal leadership, how do you get other people to WANT to follow you? How do you get people to move toward a COMMON PURPOSE? How do you get people to feel ENERGIZED to work together and get things done that everyone can feel PROUD of? This is what The Student Leadership Challenge® Experience is all about.

Participants will study, discuss, and experiment with The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership:

  • Model The Way

  • Inspire A Shared Vision

  • Challenge The Process

  • Enable Others To Act

  • Encourage The Heart

Serving as a signature leadership development program for all students, this experience is a dynamic and comprehensive program that is tied to a leadership assessment--The Student Leadership Practices Inventory (Student LPI)--based on decades of scientific evidence and the experiences of millions of ordinary people who accomplished extraordinary things.

This experience has the greatest impact when delivered in a half-day format that helps you focus on your Personal Best Leadership Experience while providing insight into The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership. Then, we dive into the ten commitments and 30 behaviors of leadership through high-energy and interactive exercises where participants practice what they’re learning. The full-day experience includes the Student LPI Assessment debrief (ordered separately through Wiley). This comprehensive experience will be your entire leadership training for the year!
