About
Building on Emerging Leadership Training and Foundational Peer Leadership Training, APLT, offers students the opportunity to delve deeper into the meaning of leadership and sense of purpose. APLT adopts a broader approach to leadership and encourages students to reflect on their leadership journey and impact.
Students attending this training will explore the below themes and corresponding quotes:
- Sense of Purpose – “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs
- Creating Your Goals & Living Our Values – “Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”—Sorin Kierkegaard.
- Sustainable Leadership & Avoiding Burnout – “I found in my research that the biggest reason people aren’t more self-compassionate is that they are afraid they’ll become self-indulgent. They believe self-criticism is what keeps them in line. Most people have gotten it wrong because our culture says being hard on yourself is the way to be.” – Kristen Neff
