Leadership Development ProgramMay 10-11, 2013

The Stephen M. Ross School of Business at the

University of Michigan is ranked No. 1 in the world for

leadership development. The Ross Leadership Initiative

(RLI) is the school’s leadership development center of

excellence.

OOur world is filled with challenges. More than ever

before, we need leaders across society and throughout

organizations whose core purpose is to make a positive

difference. They must have empathy, drive, courage,

and the integrity to do the right thing even when it is

not popular. We need leaders who can balance the

competing tensions inherent in organizational life;

leadersleaders with a bias toward action, who can mobilize the

highest potential in others.

At RLI, we are committed to graduating business

students who will be part of the solution. We serve their

leadership development needs through high-impact,

action-based programs that give them the capabilities

they need to lead in today's complex and dynamic

world.
