Leadership is not a quality that develops overnight. It is shaped through experience, learning, and the courage to face real-world challenges. A leader is not only expected to set a direction but also to create an impact on the people and environment around them.
This was highlighted during the “Future Leaders for Impact: Leadership, Purpose, and Real-World Problems” event, organized by the Career and Student Development Unit (CSDU) of FEB UGM, on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, at the 8th-Floor Auditorium of the Learning Center, FEB UGM.
