Leadership Labs on the Community/Society Level

INCLUSIVE LEADERSHIP

Everyone is unique and everyone has bias, sometimes without a person realizing it. The Inclusive Leadership lab takes a fresh look at equity, equality, and inclusion.  Participants learn to recognize the values of others and identify various social identities through the scope of leadership.

LEADING WITH INTEGRITY

The Leading with Integrity lab focuses on interpersonal and organizational ethical leadership. Participants are faced with ethical challenges and learn how to successfully navigate them.

NETWORKING AND PERSONAL BRAND DEVELOPMENT

Displaying solid leadership during times of personal or professional change can be difficult.  The Networking and Personal Brand Development lab provides an opportunity for current students to learn from Illinois Alums about self-management skills to employ when transition is on the horizon.  Participants also practice developing and maintaining professional networks that are often key to success.

About this Guide

The values and actions of individuals, teams, and organizations interact with and affect the broader communities in which they are situated.  Leaders are role models and influencers with several communities simultaneously, and must possess skills and attitudes consistent with success in this larger context.

This guide is intended to explore each competency of the community/society level of the leadership competencies. Leadership competencies are cumulative, so we recommend exploring the other levels if you have yet to do so. Use the texts, videos, programs, and activities in this guide to understand and become a role model in your community.
