足球竞彩app排名 Leadership Conference 2025

Theme: Leading with Integrity

The University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) invites submissions for the Inaugural 足球竞彩app排名 Leadership Conference 2025 under the theme Leading with Integrity.” In a global landscape defined by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), ethical and courageous leadership is not a luxury, it is a necessity.

In alignment with Wits’ 2033 strategy to cultivate globally-minded scholars and transformative leaders, this conference offers an important space for student leaders to explore how integrity functions as an anchor in turbulent contexts. As conflicts escalate, climate concerns grow, and institutional/political trust deteriorates, there is an urgent need for emerging leaders who lead with clarity, conviction, and character.

Parallel Session: “Lead or Perish – 足球竞彩app排名 Reflections”

This dynamic session offers student leaders a platform to present reflective essays, position papers, or case studies that interrogate integrity as a foundational leadership trait. Presenters are encouraged to engage with the following guiding questions:

  • What does integrity mean for the current generation of student leaders?
  • Anchored Leadership in an Uncertain World: What mechanisms can foster greater urgency and awareness for young leaders to cultivate integrity as a personal and leadership value?
