Graduate, graduate professional, and post-docsThe Graduate Student Leadership Summit is an intense, one-day leadership development event, open to all graduate, graduate professional students, and post-docs. The goal of the Summit is to empower graduate students to take a proactive approach to their leadership development so they may make a difference at MSU and in the world. Through quality keynote speakers and engaging workshops, students interact with content related to personal, relational, functional, and contextual leadership skills while participating in experiences that can help them develop their core leadership competencies. Participants will meet this year’s Graduate Student Life and Wellness Leadership Fellows, who are integral to the ‘for grad students, by grad students’ design of the Leadership Institute.
This year’s Summit theme is “Leading Change” and will be focused on the 7 C’s of the Social Change Model for leadership. The year’s Summit will celebrate non-positional, “on the ground” leaders by inviting such individuals from the MSU community to share their experience and expertise throughout the day.
There is a $10 registration fee. Registration is open from October 1 - October 31. Register at:
