In preparation for our last Masterclass on "Leadership and Social Responsibility", the topic culminates everything we've gone through thus far this academic year. Whether or not you've attended previous Masterclasses, we believe that this session will be immensely beneficial by adding to the topic.

Main points will include:

On Leadership:
What is a leader and what does it mean to be one?
Are leaders born or can they be created?
What's the difference between a leader and a manager?
Ultimately, through be the leader of self first, can one take up the role of leading and mentoring others?

On Social Responsibility:
What is social responsibility?
What is giving back?
How can we prepare ourselves to give back in our respective spaces without expecting much?

This is just the crux of it. Come engage. Invite friends.

The Session is this evening, from 17:30-19:30 at the Umthombo Building, Floor One.

We're looking forward to seeing you guys there.
