Have you been thinking about how you will make a
difference in your own life and how you affect the people around you?
We are looking for first year students—those who would call themselves
leaders and those who don’t yet—to enroll in
a new course on leadership development. Our principle belief is that
all students—no matter who they are or what they are like—can be the
architect of their leadership journeys at UW. Using a combination of
large format lectures, small leadership labs facilitated
by amazing student and staff leaders, guest speakers, and cutting edge
technology like online games, our aim is to give first year students a
customized experience of self-reflection and connection to others to
accelerate their leadership development.

Husky Leadership Initiative Leadership Firesides
offer ongoing opportunities for students to engage in meaningful
dialogue with a diverse range of civic, corporate and campus leaders in
an informal setting. These leaders share their personal
journeys and perspectives on leadership and become momentary mentors
for students attending the event. The Firesides are a way for students
to learn more about and reflect on leadership and build their leadership
competence and confidence. This new course
will offer students an opportunity to take a deep dive into the
Firesides series. Registered students will attend the weekly Leadership
Firesides, participate in an introductory session (Week 1) and a
closing session (Week 10) and submit weekly written reflections
on the presentations.
