Why Purpose Matters - How do student clubs and societies help our future leaders build their leadership skills?

Written By Anne Orr

Were you a member of a student club or society at college or university? Did those opportunities help build your confidence and leadership skills?

Boards123 conducted a research project to discover:

  • How do Student Clubs and Societies work?

  • How do student clubs and societies help our future leaders build their leadership skills?

In January 2020 we conducted a research project to discover: 

  • how Student Clubs and Societies work?

  • how do they help future leaders build leadership skills?

We were joined on this project by two amazing #futureleaders, Caoimhe Gray and Jordan Hylton. 

We are forever grateful for the time, energy and insights they brought to the project.

A special THANK YOU to all the Clubs and Societies that responded to the survey. 

Check out the podcast.
