Leadership Summit is a one-day professional conference for UM students, which increases awareness of real-world leadership concepts and emphasizes the development of one’s leadership potential.  Leadership Summit provides an opportunity for personal growth, knowledge acquisition, and skill development through keynote presentations and breakout sessions that focus on relevant issues students face as leaders at UM, in their communities, and in society.

Facilitated by UM staff, faculty, and local community leaders, the breakout sessions cover a wide variety of interest area tracks including: leadership development for emerging to advanced leaders; diversity among student leaders; ethics and decision making; civic engagement and service; campus-wide programming; and Greek Life.

Additionally, Leadership Summit creates the opportunity for networking amongst emerging and established student leaders. Whether seeking to develop or refine personal leadership skills, striving to strengthen a student organization, or simply looking to explore new concepts and gain insight from campus administrators and community leaders, Leadership Summit offers an invaluable, one-day conference experience for UM students.

This year’s Summit will be held on Saturday January 28, 2012.
