What Fellows Say

My SLG experience was both challenging and practical. It forced me to slow down, reflect, and be more intentional about how I lead. I entered the program while stepping into a new leadership role, and the coursework gave me a framework to make sense of real, in-flight challenges rather than abstract ones. SLG is not about quick answers. It builds self-awareness, judgment, and discipline in how you show up every day.

Jarred J., Fall 2025 Fellow

  • This program is transformational. It meets you where you are, and if you put in the work, you will absolutely see change. This program is a must for anyone who wants to develop as a servant leader and is ready to take a hard look at themselves.
    Phyllis K.
    2023 Fellow, Medicine
  • The sense of community, the network of leaders, the readings, and the discussions will push you to think about how you are being the best leader and serving your team. SLG arms you with a mentor and a cohort of like-minded individuals to help you succeed on your journey.

    2023 Fellow, Military
  • This program supports individual leaders in becoming the best version of themselves, grounded in a foundation of values and virtues, and developed through a variety of personalized methods. The personalized mentorship and the network of leaders within the cohort create a safe space to dive deeper into areas that require growth.

    Spring 2026 Fellow
  • Love, love, love this fellowship. I wish this could be mandatory for everyone. This teaches pivotal life lessons that can be applied to every aspect of life: personal, professional, family, friends, school, sports.
    Jennifer T.
    Fall 2025 Fellow
  • SLG did not reinvent the wheel. It reinforced, highlighted, and emphasized things that deep down I knew. It gave me permission to feel confident in my soft skills. Putting people and relationships first is not a negative. Vulnerability and connection are integral components of leadership.
    Danielle S.
    Spring 2025 Fellow
  • SLG provides a deeper leadership style. It provided the depth to build relationships that transcended surface-level connections. During the program, we laid a solid foundation that allowed each of us to grow into transformational leaders. It has shown us how to lead not just with skill, but with heart.

What Organizations Say

  • We are all in different industries, and being able to discuss and talk with the fellows and mentors and learn about their experience has been amazing. The experience, the conversations, and the learning material is truly something you cannot get at your workplace.
    Andrew J.
    2022 Team Fellow
  • The program helped me to grow individually and gave us the tools to grow as a team. It pointed out some of my blind spots that I can now work on and refine. Most importantly, it made it clear our team all wants UDC to succeed and helped put us on a path to work together to achieve our goals.
    Andrew S.
    2025 Team Fellow
  • I found the program very enlightening. The initial focus on self was very important to me to identify who and where I am, and providing tools to improve. The last part of the program put a spotlight on the concerns for the company, and it was enlightening to see the perceptions from people in different areas.
    Faye H.
    2025 Team Fellow
  • This is not your typical team-building nor self-improvement deal. It is much more than that. The teachings are about living with purpose, every day and with every step. It is about conduct over empty words and about the true value of team, be it at the family and friends level or work.
    Hamid A.
    2025 Team Fellow
