The Emerging Leader Experience- launching leaders since 1996!

Participants will engage in leadership development opportunities and service-learning projects with the ELE community, the larger Emory community, and upperclass student leaders, developing important ethical leadership and global citizenship skills throughout the experience.

Enhance personal communication skills and ability to listen actively
Develop a stronger ability to interact and work with diverse populations to accomplish a task.
