BELIEFS
All Florida State University students, faculty and staff have the ability to continually develop and enhance their leadership capacity through understanding, acquiring, practicing, reflecting, and applying leadership knowledge, skills and values.
Leadership is an inclusive, ethical, change process that moves a group of individuals toward a shared vision.
As a process, leadership is a relational, dynamic behavior, not a passive role based on a title or position within a group.
Leadership occurs within the contexts of individuals, partnerships, groups/teams, and communities.
Educators have the ability to influence and direct the leadership learning process through providing intentional leadership education, training, development, and engagement opportunities.
