With the understanding that leadership is a collaborative process that is open to everyone, not related to formal title or position, we will invite members of the FSU campus and local communities to share lessons learned from their experiences as leaders in a variety of community and professional spaces. All are welcome to join us in learning from our experienced speakers, both in person and virtually. Those who attend this series can expect to learn more about the many facets of leadership and walk away with practical applications for their own lives. We hope that the Leadership Speaker Series will encourage and inspire you to become an everyday leader. Participation in the Leadership Speaker Series is always at no cost for all who join.
