Executive Leadership Institute
Developing Leaders Within Our System
The UNC Executive Leadership Institute prepares and develops future leaders identified within the UNC System. Broadly, the program’s purpose is to increase the ability of talented employees to move into System-wide senior leadership positions. Participants will be committed to and held accountable for active engagement with the program content, faculty, and cohort colleagues. The program is designed to deepen participants’ capacity to immediately contribute to the success of their institution as well as the broader UNC System. By building collaboration and partnerships among institutions through Executive Leadership Institute cohorts, best practices are shared and leveraged. In turn, experienced administrators will be better prepared for more demanding roles and/or re-energized in current roles.

The Executive Leadership Institute helps develop the skills and talents of the next generation of UNC System leaders. Experiences gained in the program prepare participants to take on more challenging roles or take the next step in their careers. The quality of the institute’s first cohort of graduates have made me confident about the future leadership of our university system.
