This session is about thinking, moving, and behaving authentically, and how this translates into becoming a better leader. Like many of us know if not let us start now if we did not know before.. about the importance of honesty. College is the place where we will discover and begin the journey of finding ourselves. The point of today's leadership episode is to examine our definitions of congruence versus perfection. The definitions and activities will give us an opportunity to reflect on our core beliefs and how they fit in reality. Come to this session to find ways to be congruent within 24 hours.
Dinner Provided.
