Leadership Programs

 

A process by which a person influences others to accomplish an objective and directs the organization in a way that makes it more cohesive and coherent. Leaders carry out this process by applying their leadership attributes, such as beliefs, values, ethics, character, knowledge, and skills by making followers want to achieve higher goals.

Success of Delta Chi depends on the knowledge of its undergraduate leaders and their adherence to the values of our Fraternity. An investment in the leadership training programs of Delta Chi is the most direct way to improve the future of our organization.

 

“A”s’ Academy

A's AcademyIn January, “A”s from every Delta Chi chapters and colonies gather together for an annual leadership and management seminar for a three day academy at the Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology in Southern Indiana.  It is the Fraternity's premier leadership and management program that provides all "A"s' with the resources and increased confidence to lead their chapter/colony more effectively.  The curriculum contains  a variety of programming that focuses on the five core skills of leadership and management: delegation, communication, confrontation, motivation, and representation. All this is provided free of charge for all "A"s attending (including full travel reimbursement, lodging and no registration fees).

This is an outstanding program that will benefit the members and chapters of Delta Chi for years to come.  Many of the attendees from previous Academies reported a significant increase in leadership and organization skills, project implementation abilities and a general reenergizing towards their office. The program continues to improve and achieves better results each year.

 

"I really think when you look at the total package of "A"s' Academy from the location to the staff and facilitators to the programming, it is up there as one of the premiere president's or leadership academies out there right now. We didn't let them get away with the easy answers and the surface level questions. We really raised our level of expectation for these men and they showed that they were ready to meet the challenge. I just facilitated at UIFI (Undergraduate Interfraternity Institute) and we had a student there who had attended "A"s' Academy. He really stood out as a leader who could drive the conversation and who could challenge those around him while also developing an even stronger position on what Delta Chi means to him. It was obvious that his experience at "A"s' Academy had put him on a higher plain than those around him."

Regional Leadership Conferences

The Regional Leadership Conference is designed to develop leadership skills, to help attendees realize that Delta Chi is more than their own chapter/colony, and to provide Delta Chi men within the Region the opportunity to share ideas, achievements and experiences with other Delta Chi chapters, officers, Regents, alumni, advisors and Headquarters staff. Each RLC is hosted by a chapter or colony within that region and is where the region's representative to the Fraternity, or Regent, is elected.
