WE LEAD is the umbrella name for the comprehensive student leadership enhancement and development program at Western Carolina University. The program provides opportunities for students to gain and hone leadership skills through the use of liberal studies learning outcomes.
Using the Social Change Model of Leadership Development as its framework, WE LEAD is founded on the belief that leadership comes from a place other than position-based power leadership is an outgrowth of generosity of spirit, a mindset that applies ideas and abilities of individuals and groups to create social benefits.
WE LEAD offers diverse programming including event advising, retreat planning, advisor training, officer transition, theory, group dynamics and workshops tailored to specific needs or requests. In addition to leadership programs, more than 100 student organizations serve as leadership laboratories allowing students to enhance and develop their leadership skills.
