Each year, the PEL administrative team identifies projects designed to address essential strategic questions facing the University. The group leadership project is designed to:

• enhance participants' understanding of complex issues facing the University
• give participants exposure to the scope and depth of University departments and functions
• strengthen the team experience of participants
• provide current University leaders with new perspectives and ideas for addressing long-range issues
• expand the culture of leadership beyond the PEL participants
