History of the Kettering LEADERS: The Kettering University LEADERS Endowment Fund was established in 1999 by a small group of recent alumni as a way to promote leadership development on campus. These alumni, all student leaders themselves, recognized the value of identifying students with leadership potential and giving them the tools needed to develop their skills. During the two years that followed, the alumni further developed that idea and this mission statement: “The mission of the Kettering University LEADERS Endowment is to support and develop the leadership potential and integrity of the students of Kettering University, to provide for the perpetuation of innovative leadership skills within and outside Kettering University, and to insure the continued reputation of Kettering University as a school of leaders.” The alumni group set a goal of establishing a $1 Million endowment in order to support leadership programs at Kettering. Other student leader alumni were recruited to join the Endowment, not just as donors, but also as active participants in the organization. The alumni, who support the Endowment with financial donations also run the Endowment, select the Endowment recipients and plan the Leadership programs. Students who are selected for the Endowment receive a wide variety of Leadership training both on and off campus. Currently, that training includes Leadershape, which is a nationally recognized training program for leaders, as well as on campus workshops and a weekend retreat hosted by the alumni. As part of this training, students are asked to practice their leadership skills by developing a program that gives back to the Kettering community. Also, students are matched with alumni mentors to assist them with one-on-one guidance in their Kettering career as well as their life after Kettering. In 2002 the Endowment selected its first class of fellows and has added two more classes since. All students are enjoying the fruitful leadership training offered by the fellowship. With over 30 alumni, the Endowment is rapidly growing and is proud to accept applications for its fourth fellowship class.
