Emerging Leaders Program
About Fairfield University Fairfield University, founded by the Society of Jesus, is a coeducational institution of higher learning whose primary objectives are to develop the creative intellectual potential of its students and to foster in them ethical and religious values and a sense of social responsibility. Jesuit education, which began in 1547, is committed today to the service of faith, of which the promotion of justice is an absolute requirement.
Why L.E.A.D.?
The L.E.A.D. “Emerging Leaders Program” is an introductory leadership program for first year students. This program meets eight times during the spring semester and incorporates workshops that illustrate several leadership components from Stephen R. Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Successful People. These topics not only allow students to explore and strengthen their own leadership skills and abilities while at Fairfield University, but also for life after college.
L.E.A.D. goals include the development of the following areas
n Communityn Critical Thinking/Self Awarenessn Life Skills/Career Developmentn Social Justice

About the Social Change Model of LeadershipThe Social Change Model of Leadership* is inclusive in that it is designed to enhance the development of leadership qualities in all participants – those who hold formal leadership positions as well as those who do not – and to promote a process that is inclusive and actively engages all who wish to contribute. Thus, leadership is viewed as a process rather than as a position. The model explicitly promotes the values of equity, social justice, self-knowledge, personal empowerment, collaboration, citizenship, and service.
About Stephen Covey and the Seven HabitsThe eight L.E.A.D. sessions incorporate many of the topics from Stephen R. Covey’s The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. An internationally respected leadership authority, family expert, teacher, organizational consultant, and author, Dr. Covey dedicates his life to teaching principle-centered living and leadership to individuals, families, and organizations.
Dr. Covey’s international best seller, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, was named the #1 Most Influential Business Book of the Twentieth Century. His other successful books include First Things First, Principle-Centered Leadership, and The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Families. Stephen R. Covey is continuously engaged in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding through reading and through interaction with the diverse, inspirational people he encounters the world over.
