KYB Leadership Academy International Conference

Our History of International Conference

The KYB Leadership Academy International Conference is a cultural immersion experience designed to allow participants to master the KYB Leadership Academy modules, core areas, and competencies. During this experience, scholars develop lifelong friendships and expand their leadership skills and capabilities. We are all collaborators forming a community of practice committed to sharing ideas, challenging assumptions, and learning from each other. The time goes quickly, and scholars are responsible for daily journals and video logs to capture the moments. This is a fun experience. Chaperones are active participants encouraging and engaging the process.
