2008 Presidents Leadership Academy Dates Announced

A model within the Interfraternal world, Phi Psi’s Presidents Leadership Academy (PLA) is scheduled for January 25-27, 2008 at Laurel Hall in Indianapolis, IN. The program is specifically designed for chapter presidents who together with lead facilitators and small group leaders will put the role of a leader under a microscope.

Under the guidance of trained facilitators, undergraduates’ notions of what it means to be a chapter leader will give way to fresh ideas as they explore their Phi Psi experience, individual values, group values, organizational management, goal setting and personal development. Registration for the program will be available starting Monday, November 12, 2007 and is limited to 70 total participants. The registration deadline is January 5, 2008.

The conference begins with an opening session mid-afternoon on Friday and adjourns on Sunday at approximately the same time. This year’s program will feature an optional Sunday afternoon session where attendees can meet with Phi Kappa Psi staff, alumni and undergraduate leaders in order to discuss chapter management issues. It will begin approximately one hour after the end of the standard PLA programming. Participants planning on attending the optional session are requested to make note of their desire to attend when registering.

Do attend PLA if:
You are a Chapter President, Vice President or chapter leader
You want to learn leadership training theory and techniques
You want valuable tools that can help your chapter

Don’t attend PLA if:
You have attended before
You are looking for the Headquarters staff to tell you how to run your chapter
You are not into working long days

This type of leadership experience is rare among college fraternities. The Academy is funded through a grant from the Phi Psi Foundation. Thus, all travel and enrollment costs are paid! The only charge is a $75 investment fee for the program. The money can come from participants, the chapter or the house corporation. 

For additional information and to register online visit the Fraternity’s website. Also, undergraduates should be on the lookout for more information sent via mail and email. The Fraternity is looking forward to this year’s Presidents Leadership Academy and participants’ attendance at this dynamic, educational and high energy program.
