Introducing the Leadership & Society Initiative
The Leadership and Society Initiative (LSI) supports accomplished executives in successfully transitioning from their longstanding careers toward purposeful next chapters of leadership for society.
In this yearlong immersion in UChicago’s unparalleled environment of discovery and impact, LSI Fellows envision and launch ambitious futures—for themselves and for the world around them.
The Experience
Know oneself. Understand the world. Envision the future.
The LSI program gives you the time to think critically about where you’ve been and where you want to go next. It’s an opportunity to reflect, reimagine and recharge in one of the most intellectually stimulating places on earth. And while the program lasts just a year, the insights and connections you make are with you for life.
The Curriculum
We give you the space to explore. You determine what your future will look like.
For more than 130 years, the University of Chicago has been home to transformative ideas and breakthroughs. Experience our powerful approach to discovery—enabling you to define the type of work that matters most to you—and changes society for the better. Then devise an action plan to make it happen.
