Leadership Programs
JWU Charlotte's Student Engagement department provides opportunities to help you develop individual leader and group leadership identities, abilities, and confidence, while also gaining a better understanding of the role of leadership within social responsibility.
Launched in the fall of 2022, the monthly Student Leader Workshop series expanded in the fall of 2023 to include weekly offerings. Now in its third year, the Student Leader Workshop series meets every Friday during the academic year from 9am-10am in the Academic Center.
Critically, Student Engagement believes all students are capable of growing their leader identities, abilities, and confidence. As such, the Student Leader Workshop series is available to all students regardless of positional title, role, or involvement in student organizations. Anyone with an interest in bettering themselves and those around them are encouraged to participate!
