Leadership
DEL-MEM
![Page 27: Del mem recruit virtual-102212](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042816/5596f33e1a28ab674b8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
the del-mem leadership advantage
LEADERSHIP is a driving theme
Can leadership be “taught?”
Leadership is cultivated by each individual and
requires time; it is a process
Leadership is integrated through:
exercises during face-to-face sessions,
personal consultations
monthly leadership meetings,
select readings, and
a dedicated workshop in D.C. engaging
prominent leaders.
![Page 28: Del mem recruit virtual-102212](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042816/5596f33e1a28ab674b8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Leadership is woven into the course
curriculum, but outside the classroom, a
leadership consultant fosters leadership
development through reflection and
exposure to a wide variety of
examples, styles, and tools.
He continues to mentor and act as sounding board
to our students long after graduation.

“The [DEL-MEM leadership session in
DC] offered an opportunity to meet and
work intimately with a diverse and
distinguished group of leaders in the field.
I don't know of any other program in the
country that offers such an important
experience.”
