Learning to become an effective leader

"Practice is the hardest part of learning. Training is the essence of transformation."

- Ann Voskamp, Canadian author

To promote leadership development and provide opportunities for all current and potential student leaders, the tiered leadership system encourages a systematic growth pathway for students to apply what they have learnt and advocate for causes with social impact. These competency roadmaps aim to build awareness of the leadership opportunities in SUSS and scaffold a systematic growth journey for students to apply learnings and advocate for causes with social impact. These pathways are available for all SUSS students and application to other roadmaps is based on fulfilment of roadmap criteria. Student leaders’ participation in the pathways lasts for one year and is subject to respective pathway renewal criteria.
