UCCSlead
Everyday Leadership
The core philosophy of UCCSlead, everyday leadership entails the ways in which you show up for yourself and for others every single day through your words, actions, and decisions. Everyday leadership works as a mindset through which you have infinite opportunities to practice and improve your leadership skills. UCCSlead strives to develop engaged and ethical, world-changing leaders who embody everyday leadership by offering free, accessible leadership and service programming for all UCCS students. Students who complete these programs will have a greater understanding of their personal leadership style and of how to put it into practice through campus and community opportunities.
