In leadership, ethics is the foundation that great leaders build on. If you have dreams of inspiring others and the desire to be a leader in your field, the first annual Pueblo Ethics Conference can help get you there.
The President's Leadership Program at Colorado State University-Pueblo, in conjunction with the Center for American Values, is putting on the inaugural Pueblo Ethics Conference for Emerging Leaders. The conference will include speakers, leadership panel discussions, networking, and lunch. The conference will be held on February 6, 2015 from 8:30am-4:00pm at the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center.
The conference is open for high school seniors up to anyone who considers themselves an emerging leader. There will be panel discussions to talk about ethics in various situations with proven leaders in the community. Along with strengthening your ethical foundation it is a great chance to network with members of the community.
