ELD was a life-changing experience. It equipped me with both structured theories and practical skills, to think and engage, to strategize and execute. The authenticity, vulnerability, and trust the classmates share goes beyond the class and forms lasting friendships and support. The knowledge, confidence, and community I gained have made me a better leader and a better person.

“​This program has reconfirmed that I am ready to move to the next level. It also gave me the opportunity to really step back and reflect on what I do, how well I do it today, and where I need to make improvements. It’s been a tremendous experience.”
