Leadership Firesides: Storytelling and conversation with inspiring leaders

Posted on January 9, 2015 by admin

The Husky Leadership Initiative and Starbucks present:

Winter Leadership Firesides
The popular Leadership Fireside series is an ongoing opportunity for students to engage in meaningful dialogue with a diverse range of civic, educational, corporate and campus leaders in an informal setting. These leaders will share their personal journeys and perspectives on leadership and become momentary mentors for students attending the event. The diversity of guest speakers means that each Fireside will be unique. Students who want to reflect and engage in a dialogue about leadership and further develop the skills and knowledge to be effective leaders on and off campus will want to be sure to attend.
