Dive Deeper into Leadership
Johnson Leadership Fellows
The Johnson Leadership Fellows (JLF) program is an experiential leadership opportunity for second-year MBA students. JLFs coach first-year core teams, supporting their personal and team development, and helping them increase their team effectiveness. Students in this cohort program also take a customized leadership course to further develop role-critical skills such as coaching, facilitating difficult conversations, and resilience. Throughout the program, JLFs also develop a personal leadership portfolio.
Johnson Board Fellows
Johnson Board Fellows partner with local non-profit boards to learn about non-profit governance, gain board exposure, and give back to the community through service. As non-voting volunteer board and committee members, Johnson Board Fellows enhance their understanding of board dynamics, actively apply learnings in real-time with real stakes, and ultimately build critical skills for future service and business leadership roles.
Grand Challenges Coaches
Grand Challenges coaches work with Dyson School undergraduate teams for a semester to support their client-facing capstone projects. MBA coaches participate in a highly interactive workshop curriculum to enhance their coaching skills. Coaches apply those skills as they guide their teams in client management, team effectiveness, and producing a high-quality project. Grand Challenges coaches have a unique opportunity to build relationships across the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business while developing their leadership skills.

Park Leadership Fellowship is a two-year scholarship program for MBA students that provides students a chance to grow as leaders while serving the Johnson School, Cornell University, and the broader Ithaca community.
