Leadership Programs
The Kimmel Belonging and Engagement Hub is proud to offer a variety of Leadership Programs here at SIUE. The Kimmel Belonging and Engagement Hub believes leadership is a set of skills, behaviors, and attitudes held by those who make a difference in the world around them. Whether you are just starting to get involved on campus or are a well-established leader, we have programs to help you better understand yourself and work well with others. Skills gained from these experiences will be invaluable in the workplace, in pursuing involvement in your local community, and in working with others.
