Purpose
The vision of the newly created Center for Ethical Leadership at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs/The University of Texas at Austin is to enhance the ability of everyone who attends this conference to better prepare future leaders.

We are interested in both the theory and practice of leadership, and, especially, in innovations. Efforts to develop ethical leaders must be grounded in current realities and our best thinking about how emerging trends will shape the need for future leaders. To complete the learning experience, we need inspiration from those who have accepted leadership responsibility.

This is an international conference. We have asked presenters to share their thoughts on how ethnic, national, and cultural differences affect the exercise of leadership.

Finally, we hope to learn about leadership in different settings such as government, business, the military, community, and others.
