Collegiate Leadership Conference of Ohio
The Office of Student Engagement and Leadership at Columbus State Community College invites you to the tenth annual Collegiate Leadership Conference of Ohio (CLCO) on Friday, November 8th and Saturday, November 9th, 2019!
Since 2009, Columbus State's Student Ambassador Leadership Program has worked to organize
an engaging and informative conference for college students and advisors across the
state of Ohio. Over the last 10 years, more than 1,000 attendees have had the opportunity
to develop their leadership skills, hear from expert speakers, engage in hands-on
community service experiences, and network with other students and professionals across
Ohio. As we celebrate the 10th annual conference, we reflect on the last 10 years
of the people we met, the speakers we have heard, and the experiences we have made!
This year's theme is 10 Years Later: The Evolution of Leadership with the purpose
for attendees to develop a culture of collaboration and employ developmental leadership
skills. Key areas of focus include developmental leadership, collaboration, communication,
holistic wellness, self-efficacy, diversity, and equity.
What will participants learn during the conference?
