LeaderShape® Institute
Delta Sigma Pi is excited to offer the LeaderShape® Institute to Delta Sigma Pi collegians each year. Nine Deltasigs will receive FULL TUITION SCHOLARSHIPS to participate in the national LeaderShape® Institute in Allerton, IL (30 miles north of Champaign) again in 2009. The LeaderShape Institute is an intensive, energizing and unique educational experience designed to develop students’ ability to lead with integrity.At the LeaderShape Institute, participants create a "LeaderShape Vision" which is a project that is implemented throughout the following year. The objective of these participant projects is to create "extraordinary improvements" on campus, in the community or in Delta Sigma Pi. LeaderShape is most impacting when the participants make a commitment to test and apply the principles and skills they learn through making a difference for others. Thus, not only are you making a six-day commitment to LeaderShape, you are making a year-long commitment to improving your Fraternity, university and surrounding communities.
Information and a scholarship application for the LeaderShape® Institute for 2009 will be available here by November '08.
