overland leader stories

EXPERIENCE OVERLAND from our leaders’ perspective

Leaders come from all sorts of backgrounds, with a vast array of interests and prior leadership experiences. Uniting them all, though, is their focus on their students and the Overland mission.

STEP BACK

“I believe leadership is being able to love and care for all of the team members…

I’ve learned that leadership does not only rest on the “leader.” In a team, we all can and should lead. This summer, I’ll strive to empower and encourage ownership in each and every team member over our summer adventure!”
