Â鶹´«Ã½'s innovative Visionary Leadership Institute, the first of its kind on a university campus, was created to fulfill our mission of educating visionaries with a global perspective.
It's not enough to be smart or capable to be a difference maker in today's changing world; you have to be extraordinary. At Â鶹´«Ã½, we strongly believe that every person has the potential to be extraordinary. That's why we dedicate ourselves to the development of visionary leaders who will have the confidence to lead through ambiguity, the skills to solve real-world problems and the understanding to be able to inspire others.
The idea of visionary leadership is in our DNA. Our philosophy and our educational approach are built upon the concept of recognizing your unique potential as a student here and giving you the tools to be able to create your own path and to guide others in making the world a better place. In whatever way you wish to do so, according to your talents and your interests. We invite you to explore what it means to a leader and a visionary and how we are able to help you get there.
