Minor in

Leadership and Ethics Across Disciplines (LEAD)

The LEAD minor draws from different disciplines—arts and humanities, social sciences, business—to help students develop versatile skills that will help them adapt to, and shape, the world of tomorrow.

Leadership is a values-driven, collaborative process defined by human interaction across a variety of contexts, from the personal to the professional and from the local to the global. The LEAD minor recognizes that although not everybody will readily identify as a leader, most will be confronted with ethical challenges and complicated problems, need to work well with people from a variety of different backgrounds, and require cross-disciplinary skills to thrive under conditions of complexity and uncertainty.
