Development of our Leadership Department was born from our five-year strategic plan which launched in 2018. Under the guidance of our Director of Leadership Initiatives, Jennifer Cervone Guarnaccia ‘93, P’22, ‘25 – who herself is a gcLi Scholar – is structured to champion ethical leadership, develop leadership competencies, inspire change agents, encourage career exploration, promote diversity, develop global competency, and combat unconscious gender bias.
Now beginning its sixth year, department continues to thrive and expands professional development offerings for faculty, hosting an annual community speaker series, with this year’s guest presenter focused on women in STEM professions. We are pleased to report that we have already facilitated internships and externships for more than 100 students in diverse workplaces and professions – spanning innovation, nonprofit work, entrepreneurship, law, health sciences, politics, and more.
