Are you interested in pursuing the leadership minor?
The Leadership Studies Minor (LSM) enables you to develop as a leader. They seek students who are curious about what the academic research says about leadership and who want to practice leadership as a 抖阴旅行射 student.
Leadership Through Wilderness course
- Open to all Leadership Studies Minor candidates
- Enroll in LEAD 4000-060 for spring 2021
- Online 9:35鈥�10:50 a.m.听Tuesday/Thursday

- Spend three nights and four days learning technical wilderness skills and real-world leadership lessons with expert mentors and guides provided by Colorado Outward Bound School of the Rockies.
- Additional course fee (TBD) covers all lodging, meals, access fees, gear and guide requirements.
You might not think of yourself as a 鈥渓eader鈥� right now, but in pursuing the LSM, you will learn new ways to think about leadership and discover your own leadership strengths. This includes learning skills such as self-awareness, managing conflict, speaking in public and analyzing complex problems. You will also gain knowledge about collaborative and inclusive leadership, ethical decision-making听and emotional intelligence.
The LSM, housed in the School of Education and 抖阴旅行射 Engage, is available to 抖阴旅行射 Boulder students from all majors and colleges through a partnership with the Center for Leadership.
