I used to believe that someone was born a leader and that if you didn't have what it took, you couldn't be an effective leader. Now I know that with proper experience and teaching, anyone can become a leader and can make a difference in someone's life.

Stuart Gordon is a role model of leadership I am grateful for my students to know. As a Caldwell Fellow graduate, Stuart embodies the values of servant-leadership on which our program rests.

During my time with Appointed to Lead I discovered that there are endless ways to be a leader. All you need is the will to help others. Through this experience I realized that I needed to be more uplifting to my peers and teammates.
