Welcome to the 2008-2009 Shared Leadership Program
Your Invitation to join Boise State Community Leaders and experience a growing leadership tradition.
New! Shared Leadership Survey
Help us plan your Shared Leadership experience! Your input will help us plan activities that meet your expectations and program goals. Each month we will evaluate how well we did this and your comments will help to shape the current program as well as plan for future activities. This survey will take approximately 5 minutes to complete.
Program Purpose 
A cross-section of Boise State's campus community provides Shared Leadership participants an opportunity to experience collaborating, networking, and partnering with people they might not otherwise meet. An exchange of new ideas and diverse leadership experience among participants and session leaders creates an equalized and safe atmosphere in which all points of view are considered valuable. Shared Leadership 2008/2009 will strive to meet its program purpose, goals and objectives in each session.
Program Goal
By combining practical leadership tools with an in-depth view of the University’s processes, Shared Leadership 2008/2009 will equip participants with the means necessary to make a significant contribution to the campus community and their individual departments.
Program Objectives
Shared Leadership will strive to…
- Combine practical leadership tools with a corresponding campus/community
activity or speaker in every session.
- Provide participants a number of opportunities to take part as leaders, in either a real or hypothetical situation.
- Foster an atmosphere of collaboration and enjoyment so that partnerships and friendships may be established and an exchange of leadership experiences may take place.
- Make available an opportunity for participants to learn leadership skills and styles from a mentor inside or outside the campus community.
- Invest time, energy, and resources in the 2008/2009 program so that participants will in turn commit themselves wholly in the second year of their two-year commitment.
Time Commitment
Shared Leadership requires a 2-year commitment. The first year participants devote one day per month from September through May (excludes December) to take part in the Shared Leadership program. The second year, participants are responsible for designing and implementing the program for the following year's participants.
