Living Leadership Learning Agreement
In order to get the most out of the program, you need to make a commitment to
what it entails. You will need to make the choice to “step-up” to the opportunities presented to
you. The Living Leadership Program will not allow behavior that is contradictory to this
commitment to impede or distract from the experience of other participants.
