The Empowerment and Leadership Club (ELC-IS) aims at helping students in collaboration to exchange ideas, be a part of associative work, enhance skills and social relationships. It aims at improving and enforcing the relationship between academic and professional life by helping students refine their skills and capabilities to set up many agreements with major technology companies. Through these partnerships, the club seeks to provide specialized and general digital courses to university students. The ELC-IS club also focuses on hands-on workshops to develop students' technical skills and encourage leadership spirit.
The major perspectives of Empowerment and Leadership Club cover:
- Seeking initiatives where students could improve their empowerment and leadership capabilities e.g. share the vision and inspire others, act with integrity and have empathy, and work on the awareness, morale, and wellbeing
- Encouraging students to join organizations and professional learning communities (within and outside of the campus) to learn how to best advocate for technology and information system in their community
- Encouraging students to think ideas and bring them into actions, hence empowering them that they can be active creators of technology, instead of just passive consumers
- Learning how to effectively work within the team as a collective excellence of many to build success within the organization
- Learning how to maintain the long-term success of the organization while encouraging team members (allowing them) for the power of consensus rather than insisting on ones' ideas and rules
- Learning skills on how to own the organization vision and trust in the leadership to create a healthy, positive, and eventually successful organization and to learn how to listen to your subordinates, and consider their thoughtful inputs
- Inviting business experts to conduct business talks.
- Calling students to participate in the related scientific events and provide the suitable supports
Empowering others and taking the responsibilities of leadership is not a casual act; it must be a comprehensive and continuous process. The ELC-IS is committed to nurturing the promising empowerment and developing the spirit of leadership among students.
