What a Leader is a competition that cultivates students’ proficiencies in the areas of confidence, critical thinking, interpersonal communication, and professionalism. Through a series of challenges mimicking real-world experiences, students must demonstrate their ability to properly introduce themselves and engage in meaningful, results-oriented conversation. They will learn to network intentionally with cohorts and stakeholders, develop a marketable idea, and conduct themselves in a high-pressured environment. All of which will strengthen our students' ability to be more effective leaders today and the global leaders of tomorrow.
