Leadership Development

What Does Leadership Mean at Agnes Scott College?

Within ASC’s mission of educating students to think deeply, live honorably and engage the social and intellectual challenges of our times, students exercise leadership through processes of reflecting on individual strengths, identity, and power; analyzing evidence, perspectives, and systems; and acting authentically, boldly, and ethically.

Leadership begins with a strong sense of self, and the programs supported by the Center for Leadership and Service are intentionally designed to help Scotties explore their values, strengths, and salient identities to develop an authentic leadership style for each student.

Students are encouraged to critically examine the world and systems around them, empowering them to act with moral courage and be effective change agents in our global society.

Developing oneself as a leader is an iterative process, and regardless of where you are in your own leadership development, CLS has a program to help you further develop your skills and abilities as you explore and clarify your authentic leadership style.
