Assistant Director for the Illinois Leadership Center
On Campus Interview
"Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other," John F. Kennedy
Common Framework
Partnership
One associated with another, especially in action
Leadership
A Process of Influence
Not limited to outward processes
We can influence ourselves
Why?
"...made headlines last summer when he was arrested after being involved in a fight and possessing a fake ID"
"one of the highest-paid college presidents in America, stepped down after his disparaging remarks about Catholics and Southern schools came to light"
"(candidate name) is not the solution, he's the problem"
"...cited the fraternity's ongoing history of hazing and alcohol violations in explaining the decision to shut the chapter down"
and why does partnership matter in this?
