Leadership, Employability and Development (LEAD) Workshop
Exclusively for Science and Engineering students, this Leadership, Employability and Development (LEAD) workshop is a fun and interactive workshop which allows participants to reflect on how leadership is a skill we call can develop and discusses the importance of practicing leadership skills to improve confidence.
