The Student Leadership Guide
About this book
The Center for Leadership Development at the University of Montana is proud to present the first and only leadership book on the market that is 1) intended for students, 2) written from both theoretical and popular viewpoints, and 3) structured with a real-world, service-oriented framework that students can instantly use to make a difference in their classrooms, communities, and early careers. Leadership is conceptualized from the principles that it is a collective and participative process, different from management, and firmly rooted in service. The Guide’s framework—Envision, Enlist, Embody, Empower, Evaluate, and Encourage—reflects six key leadership practices students must learn in order to lead with competence and confidence. The Student Leadership Guide has been praised by educators and students alike for its theory-backed content and its practical, inspiring call to action and service. The book has been recommended or profiled by the prestigous Robert K. Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership, The International Leadership Association, The Associations of College Unions International, and dozens of universities and non-profit organizations across the country.
