American Leadership Academy in Cabo Opens Registration to TKE
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The Offices of the Grand Chapter is proud to announce an opportunity for members who want an experience that is both life changing and fun. The American Leadership Academy in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico is an interfraternal leadership institute from February 28 through March 6, 2010. Grand Grammateus Bob Barr (Beta-Sigma, Univ. of Southern California) will be in attendance, as well as several other prominent speakers from industry. The cost is $300 all-inclusive, all you need is your plane ticket to and from. Learn More. Register.
This is a one-week program that brings successful, accomplished alumni and friends from many different professions together with current undergraduates to exchange ideas, provide a forum for discussion and teach life-lessons and skills learned during their lives after college. It is an inspirational, motivational and educational experience for men who want to be more effective leaders and more successful in whatever career choice they may pursue.
Unlike some leadership programs that keep participants tied up from dawn to dusk, the
Cabo Leadership Experience provides 3-4 hours of classes a day, usually from 10 AM to Noon and 1 to 3 PM. These sessions are led by CEOs, entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors, scientists, educators and other proven professionals. They also have professional speakers join them on topics specific to college students and success.
The goal is to help you identify and choose the best habits to make you successful in college and in life, and work with you – via alumni mentors, discussion, skill building and interaction with peers – to develop focus, direction and an action plan for your success. Perhaps the most productive time will actually be outside the classroom as you process the information with your peers and decide whether/how the concepts apply to you.
Afternoons are free to nap, enjoy the beach, or hop a bus and explore Los Cabos. There is
snorkeling, golf, ATV or horseback riding, shopping – even sport fishing – a short ride from the hotel. The hotel staff can make recommendations, regardless of interests. All meals are provided at the hotel and the hotel provides a shuttle service several evenings to Cabo San Lucas and back, so you can enjoy the nightlife. These shuttles run from 8:30 PM to 1 AM and are operated by the same licensed provider used by many hotels on the tourist corridor.
Here’s the deal – if your goals for Break are to sleep late and party all night, there are a lot of other places where you can do that much cheaper than Cabo. We recommend you save your money (and our time) and go there.
However, if you’re looking for an experience that will help you focus on success and position yourself to be a top candidate for employment after graduation, this is the place to spend your time. As a previous attendee put it, “Find a way to get to Cabo for the Cabo Leadership Experience. Bug your parents, take out a loan, work two jobs, it does not matter – the Cabo Leadership Experience is going to change your life, trust me!”
How many opportunities do you get to have lunch with a founder of TicketMaster, an advisor to U.S Presidents, or a former Special Forces officer who grew up in the Middle East? In this job market, can you afford to pass up an opportunity to make yourself a more competitive job candidate? The fact that it happens to occur in one of the most beautiful beach locations in the world is just icing on the cake.
