Leadership America is a nationwide program created for women leaders who want to build their skills and learn more about topics like education, healthcare, the environment, and the economy. The program takes participants to three different U.S. cities, giving them a chance to see how these issues play out in real life. During each session, leaders spend 2.5 days working together, sharing ideas, and learning new strategies to make a positive change in their communities. The program costs $4,000, which covers most meals, activities, and all the learning materials needed. Participants pay for their own travel and hotel costs, and the sessions sometimes happen over weekends or as virtual meetings.

At SMU, Professor Huber is known for her hard work and commitment to her students. Her selection for Leadership America shows that her work has not gone unnoticed. She is seen as a strong leader who is ready to learn more and to share her knowledge with others. By joining this program, she will have the chance to meet other women leaders from across the country. This network will allow her to learn about different challenges and successes in many areas that affect us all.

The program is designed to help leaders become more aware of the problems and opportunities in today’s world. It aims to improve understanding of national issues and to build personal strengths such as self-confidence and the ability to overcome challenges. For Professor Huber, these lessons will be valuable not just in her own life, but also in her role as an educator and mentor at SMU.

This opportunity is an important step in Professor Huber’s journey. By participating in Leadership America, she will gain new insights, build a strong network, and develop skills that will help her make a real difference in her community and beyond. Her achievement is a proud moment for SMU, reflecting the university’s commitment to strong leadership and lifelong learning.
