Lessons in Leadership
The C8: Do you “C” leadership in you?
At Texas A&M University, we’re committed to developing leaders in the classroom and beyond. Leaders from the School of Architecture developed a system of eight principles for leadership, called the Aggie C8. The CRS Center produced eight “Profiles in Leadership” videos that explain and illuminate each element:
- Character
- Communication
- Creativity
- Competition
- Competence
- Collaboration
- Courage
- Community
Three of the college’s Outstanding Alumni Awards winners — Harold L. Adams ’62, James R. “Jim” Thompson ’68 and William L. “Bill” Peel Jr. ’74 — became dogged champions and mentors of this leadership program.
This program was funded by the School of Architecture’s Development Advisory Committee (CADAC) and proposed by Geoffrey John Booth.
