The six-week program includes the followings areas of study:
- Values-driven leadership
- Self-knowledge and self-mastery
- Leading growth through experimentation
- Emotionally intelligent feedback
- Networks and structures of innovation
- Positive leadership
“This program helped focus my efforts on utilizing my values as my strengths, such as compassion, empowerment, and creativity,” said Emily. “It demonstrated how to leverage those values to inspire and lead, providing insight and resources on how our vulnerability can be our greatest asset. Most importantly, this program reinforced my belief in the power of teamwork and how much we can accomplish together. It reminded me how grateful I am to be part of such an amazing team at MITAGS.”
