What is the Fellowship in Positive Leadership?
On behalf of the Sam and Bonnie Rechter Family Trust, we have awarded grants to people who became Fellows in Positive Leadership from 2018 through the Present. Fellows use these grants to research topics related to positive leadership. Please see the researchers who have participated and summaries of their research here. If you would like to fund these fellowships, please contact us at cpl@louisville.edu.
