What is LeaderShape®?
The LeaderShape® Institute is an intensive, energizing, integrity-based educational
experience designed to equip young adults to become extraordinary leaders. The University
of Memphis session will be comprised of 50-60 students and have a curriculum that
is presented by a group of facilitators, who are able to serve as excellent role models
for the students.
Much of the week's work is done in small groups called "Family Clusters," which create
a safe, supportive learning environment that allows participants to work together,
form close friendships, and benefit from new perspectives. Each student in the cluster
works to define his/her personal vision - an extraordinary commitment to changing
or contributing to the world in a positive way.
Based on that vision, participants then develop a blueprint for the action that they
will undertake when they return home - with the objective of effecting meaningful,
measurable change in their organization during the next 9-12 months. With the guidance
of LeaderShape® facilitators, participants complete a blueprint that identifies the
goals, relationships, and action steps that are essential to the project's success.
Dynamic, challenging, and exciting, the week is intended to produce a breakthrough
in the leadership capacity of participants - benefiting the students themselves, their
respective organizations, and the institutions that they will go on to lead and serve
in the future.
