One-on-One Leadership Coaching for Undergraduate Students

Rawan Mohamed

I participated in the Leadership Coaching program in my freshman Winter and I absolutely loved the experience! What I really liked about it is how much ownership I had over shaping the experience. Although there is a certain structure to it, it is also open-ended enough for you to make it serve your needs and what you want to talk about.”

Rawan Mohamed, Computer Science (Class of '23)

My experience with leadership coaching was transformational. Rather than try to teach some best method of leadership, my [Coaches] worked with me to identify my personal strengths, and, by walking through scenarios I face everyday on my teams, helped me convert these strengths into a foundation for better collaboration.”

Zachary Martin, Materials Science & Engineering (Class of '22)
