All-University Leadership Conference

Background and History

Description
The All-University Leadership Conference is the cornerstone of UCI's leadership development program. Employing a professional conference format at a 4-star hotel, this annual program brings together approximately 240 emerging and established student leaders representing the full diversity of campus interest groups. These student leaders are joined by members of UCI's executive management group, key faculty leaders, and administrative staff for an informative and engaging leadership weekend. Conference offerings include workshops on leadership theories, principles, and concepts. In addition, contemporary campus political, social, and cultural issues are addressed. The conference includes plenary sessions, panels, workshops, and small group case studies. The All-University Leadership Conference is held at the beginning of the Fall Quarter so that the dialogue created at the conference can be built upon throughout the academic year.

• Established in 1984

• This program is the only one of its kind among the University of California campuses.

• UCI's Chancellor and other campus executives have participated in this program since its inception.

• The number of conference “alumni” exceeds 4,150 students..
