The Center for Leadership Formation

The Center for Leadership Formation (CLF) provides innovative, world-class executive education to mid- to senior-level professionals with an emphasis on leadership, business expertise, and a commitment to social responsibility. We recognize that the business world is evolving right before our eyes, more quickly than people ever imagined. In order to survive and thrive in this time of rapid change, organizations must be fast, ?exible, and adaptive. And their leaders must learn to harness the power of today’s business drivers: technology, innovation, globalization, and above all else, leadership.

No one understands these drivers better than the Seattle University Center for Leadership Formation; no one is better prepared to help you influence positive change in your organization and in your life. As a minimum, leaders must be effective in their roles. Ideally, they have great impact on the kinds of challenges we need leaders to resolve.
