A gift from a former University of Saskatchewan student is allowing the school to establish a new kind of program.
Russel and Bonnie Marcoux’s $1 million will help create the Marcoux Leadership Program; a curriculum of leadership principles, exclusive coaching opportunities, and hands-on learning for upper-year students from all disciplines.
A release from the University says students will engage in a one-week intensive course, “introducing them to leadership practices and frameworks while engaging them in team-based projects and real-world challenges.” They will be encouraged to explore leadership styles, strengthen their communication and decision-making abilities, and develop self-reflection skills. The first offering of the program will run May 4-8, this year.
