The Women's Leadership Institute, sponsored by The Women for FSU and the Center for Leadership & Social Change, seeks to: 
 

• Engage up to 49 undergraduate women in a leadership learning institute
• Enhance participants’ leader identity and leadership capacity
• Increase participants’ awareness of personal abilities and emotions through healthy self-esteem and authenticity, as well as the role they play in developing relationships and capitalizing on difference 

Rooted in the belief that leadership is learned through experience, education and reflection, WLI will focus on women’s leadership development, create a dynamic learning environment, and invite FSU women students to learn with and from FSU women faculty, staff and alumni. This year’s Women’s Leadership Institute will be held late fall 2018 on Florida State’s campus.
