What it Means to Lead From Every Seat

About the Program: College student, working professional, and contributor to one's community are all titles you each are all working to achieve. Let us explore how these positions and your affiliation as a SHRM student member can be leveraged as you continue to work towards what success looks like for you! Whatever the seat, join the conversation as we figure out what it means for you to take the next steps to claim your position.

What it Means to Lead From Every Seat is designed to help student leaders feel empowered as they unlock their leadership to rise into influential and powerful roles. This workshop offers practical and relatable tips regarding personal and professional growth and success. We will focus on getting into alignment and position to help you accelerate to your ascent. Participants will explore what it would look like to step into their leadership powerfully even in the face of fear. 

 What We Cover: 
 • Align with Your Purpose 
 • Take Your Seat at the Table 
 • Overcome Imposter Syndrome Benefits: When young people are developed, trained, and supported to ascend into powerful roles, they can change the game.

When tomorrow’s leaders lead from every seat they sit in, the organization sees transformation as well as dollars. With the right mindset, skillset and toolset, emerging leaders would be primed to take their seat at the table in today’s current landscape and climate.
