Learn. Practice. Lead.
Leadership can be taught. This is the premise of the new Accenture Leadership Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Business.
The Accenture Leadership Center (ALC) provides top-notch opportunities for undergraduate students to develop leadership skills outside the classroom. The center, which opened September 2006, provides a unique laboratory atmosphere that allows students to practice leadership principles through hands-on learning activities and participating in projects.
