Leadership 101 is training that addresses culture and society, develops effective leadership and initiates change and activism for the Asian Pacific Islander American community. The leardership training agenda will mirror concepts from the “Social Change Model of Leadership Development” from the Higher Education Research Institute of the University of California at Los Angeles. This encompasses the Seven C’s: Collaboration, Consciousness of self, Commitment, Congruence, Common purpose, Controversy with civility, and Citizenship. The overriding theme will center around “Change” and, more specifically, social change. Participants are typically student leaders on their campus who are active in student organizations. The day and a half training will take the participant through a series of exercises and discussions that will strengthen their commitment and ability to participate in social change on behalf of the Asian Pacific American community.
