Core Leadership Competencies unite all of Georgia College's leadership development efforts. They are the leadership traits and competencies that Georgia College students must master as they strive to make a difference in their communities and lead fulfilling lives of citizenship, leadership, and service. The core leadership competencies represent the essential skills that members of the faculty and staff must integrate into their leadership development programs at GC. A Georgia College leader:
The Inspire! Student Leadership Forum series invites seasoned leaders to Georgia College to share leadership lessons with our students. The forum is designed to be engaging and to allow for exchange between the presenters and guests. All GC students are invited to attend. Inspire! presenters share the university’s commitment to leadership for the collective good, whether in business, the non-profit sector, or public affairs, and are typically C-suite executives in private enterprise or hold leadership roles in the public sector.

The Office of Leadership Programs maintains institution-wide responsibility for management, coordination, and development of all Georgia College leadership programs and initiatives. Through GC Journeys, Leadership Programs staff works collaboratively with members of GC's faculty and staff—providing resources, support, and advocacy for leadership development opportunities at Georgia College
Through a progressive and scaffolded framework, all GC students who choose "intensive leadership programs" within their GC Journeys path will benefit from a common set of core leadership competencies, integrated through all of Georgia College's leadership-related courses and programs; common reflective experiences, documented in Portfolium; and 1:1 leadership-development consultations, provided by Leadership Programs staff and program partners. As with each of the GC Journeys “transformative experiences,” students must use an established programmatic vehicle to satisfy their “intensive leadership programs” requirements. A broad range of Georgia College’s curricular and programmatic offerings will comprise that GC Journeys experience. Proposals for certification as a “transformative experience” will come from the faculty or staff member who oversees and administers the course or program.
