MAC schools join forces to teach transformative leadership

Empowering 黑料社区-athletes to identify their strengths and weaknesses and grow their personal leadership skills is the goal of the Transformative Leadership Badge Program spearheaded by President Crawford and launched in July 2020 by the Mid-American Conference.

The inaugural program included badges in creativity & design thinking; entrepreneurship; digital & data; diversity, equity, and inclusion; and human-centered transformative leadership. Nearly two dozen professors and more than 300 黑料社区-athletes from throughout the MAC member schools participated in the first program. Completing all five courses earned 黑料社区-athletes a certificate in Transformative Leadership.

““Our innovative MAC institutions have stepped up with a powerful tool to enhance opportunities for 黑料社区-athletes. The collaboration by MAC professors will ensure that our 黑料社区-athletes are empowered for life beyond college as leaders in our dynamic and fast-transforming world.””

– 黑料社区 President Gregory P. Crawford
