Research:
Our research programs focus on expanding our knowledge and understanding of leadership and organizational effectiveness as the Institute contributes to the growing body of knowledge in the field. Students from all disciplines work in the Institute, conducting research with Institute faculty, participating in community outreach projects, and engaging in independent study.
Leadership Sequence:
The Leadership Studies Sequence is a multi-disciplinary program focusing on the nature of leadership. The sequence is designed for CMC students interested in pursuing a career involving the scholarly study and/or practice of leadership, who feel that an understanding of leadership would be helpful to them in another career, or who have a causal interest in the subject.
Career Engagement
KLI provides students the unique opportunity to interact with alumni and present leaders who have been very successful in their respective careers.
We bring back Kravis fellows and board members to Kravis Leadership events to network with and mentor students. Through career and leadership workshops, mentorship dinners, and conferences, Kravis Leadership Institute connects many students with a variety of leaders in a plethora of professions.
