Leadership - what is it and why do I need it?

The third QJCCI Workshop event will be held on the 28 May 2013. It is the third of five student orientated sessions and designed to provide understanding and development of leadership skills.

In this student workshop, Chris Whitecross will help participants answer the following questions; What is leadership, why do I need to learn about it and what should I do to develop my leadership ability?

When: 5:30 to 7:30pm on Tuesday 28 May 2013
