Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
The Student Leadership Competencies Guidebook
Corey Seemiller · 2013
73/100
👍 Worth It
Seemiller didn't just theorize this one — she pulled it from analyzing 522 accredited leadership programs, then built a genuinely usable four-dimension structure for each of 60 competencies. It's a curriculum-design tool through and through, but it's a rigorous, well-built one that educators keep coming back to.
