Leadership Development at JMU

Since 2003, more than 240 high-achieving leaders have participated in the program called IMPACT³, the state-of-the-art leadership training and development program at James Madison University. IMPACT³ is a year-long custom program designed to help our leaders develop their skills and, at the same time, grow a leadership culture at our university. It focuses on well-researched core competencies - skills and characteristics such as communication, integrity, and service - that mark leadership excellence for us.

Our name - IMPACT - relates to the difference effective leadership can make, and the 3 refers to the places where that impact can be made: individually, on the university level, and in society.
