Leadership Events & Training

Student leadership is vital to success of the David Eccles School of Business. Student leaders work to support institutes, centers, student organizations and initiatives to provide students with premiere Eccles experiences while developing transferable personal and professional leadership skills.

The Eccles School strives to provide strategic leadership opportunities as a leadership model. The Office of Student Engagement & Assessment, Women in Business (WIB), and Business Leaders Incorporated (BLinc) provide ongoing leadership development opportunities and resources for all Eccles students to engage in. Regardless of whether you do or do not hold a formal leadership position, sharpening your leadership skills is important now and in the future.
