The Young Alumni Leadership Program is a mentoring experience for individuals interested in developing their leadership ability.

Approximately 10 young alumni (who graduated within the last 10 years) are selected to participate in this annual program. Participants are assigned a mentor who supports and challenges them to develop and implement a personal leadership plan, designed to broaden their leadership ability.

Participants take part in two experiential learning-based daylong workshops in Gettysburg, PA as well as a series of web-based interactions throughout the year to learn skills and strategies for the development of their leadership ability. The program utilizes The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership as outlined in The Leadership Challenge by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner as its theoretical foundation encouraging participants to develop the leadership ability to Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart.
