Leadership Project

LEADERSHIP PROJECT: This is a project which you must design. You decide what you want to do and how you will achieve it. The main constraint is that the project must in some way be related to making a difference via leadership. This may NOT be related to any assignment from another course. This is a unique project for this course. You must select a team and train them to complete the project with you. You must submit draft of your project for approval. Below are some examples to stimulate your creative thinking.
