Leadership

Nebraska Wesleyan University has adopted this definition of leadership: “Leadership is the ability to empower others to achieve shared goals that promote the common good.” Through study, practice, and experiences, students will be challenged and supported to acquire knowledge, develop skills, and clarify values in the pursuit of effective leadership. Nebraska Wesleyan University has numerous involvement opportunities, which are an integral part of the college experience. It is through these experiences that leadership skills are nurtured and developed. Nebraska Wesleyan is committed to providing a wide variety of leadership experiences.
