Leadership Emory’s Mission

• Leadership Emory unites the Emory Community in teaching common elements of leadership that emphasize the important link between ethical leadership and civic engagement.

Leadership Emory: Assumptions

• . . . view[s] the “leader” basically as a change agent, i.e., one who fosters change. Leaders, then, are not necessarily those who merely hold formal “leadership” positions; on the contrary, all people are potential leaders. Furthermore, since the concepts of “leadership” and “leader” imply that there are other people involved, leadership is, by definition, a collective, [relational,] or group process" (Leadership Reconsidered, 2008, p.8). • Leadership development is a life-long process, and leaders are

lifelong learners

• Leadership can be described as “Conviction in Action” (Roberts, 2007).
