This workbook  provides a practical approach for college students to develop innovative leadership skills to launch and manage their careers and keep pace with the dynamic environment. It is tailored to the needs of college students wanting to move into their careers and lead student organizations as well as take informal leadership and influencing roles.

This workbook is the entry point for leadership development in the Innovative Leadership series, which offers an integrated development process that starts as early as university and extends to the executive ranks.

The unique situation of each case study provides invaluable insight into how student leaders develop and incorporate innovation.
