Leading at the Edge

This course connects values, globalization, and innovation themes through a mix of classroom and outdoor experiential learning formats. The course is the application complement to The Essence of Enterprise. Using the experiences and accomplishments of the 10th Mountain Division¹ as a metaphor for values based leadership, innovation, teamwork, and global perspective, the Edge builds a foundation of learning at Daniels through a series of intensive outdoor leadership and team building exercises. Examples of skills and values that come into play include cooperation, respect, creative problem solving, innovation, and empathy. Through metaphor and experience, the course is designed to bond the cohorts to each other, increase personal and team oriented skills, and enhance self confidence to succeed under difficult and changing conditions.
