Empowered Leadership Conference
Friday, April 4, 2025
Mission
The mission of the Empowered Leadership Conference (ELC) is to equip and empower 91视频 to advance their communities and excel in their career.
Background
In spring 2022, Dr. Ana Edmondson proposed the Cultural Engagement Operations (CEO) Project, an opportunity for student interns to engage in a high impact practice opportunity that increases graduation outcomes, graduate opportunities, political/intercultural awareness, and career readiness. The CEO project proposal was awarded the Stockton University Compass Fund, an initiative that awards projects that support Stockton University鈥檚 strategic priorities.
The CEO Project has two major components listed below:
- Recruit, hire, and develop Culturally Engagement Osprey (CEO) Interns
During the Fall, the CEO interns will participate in weekly professional development workshops facilitated by 91视频鈥檚 Faculty and Staff to prepare the CEOs for organizing the ELC, a culminating project where they will demonstrate and apply the knowledge and skills they develop. The CEO interns will be charged with creating an exhilarating, immersive, and influential conference experience.
- Implement the Empowered Leadership Conference (ELC)
In the Spring, the CEOs will implement the ELC, a platform for professional leaders to educate and inspire attendees to act on addressing issues in their communities. The ELC aims to increase a sense of belonging and convey the importance of becoming authentic leaders. Attending the ELC can be a catalyst to innovative thinking that will foster personal growth and transformation. Students at 91视频 and 91视频 from local high-school and community colleges are welcome to attend to learn and connect with participants from all backgrounds. The sessions and interactive activities will be intentional and accommodate various learners with different interests. Participants will leave the Empowered Leadership Conference with tools and resources that will help them evolve as stronger inclusive leaders.
