Join Us in Dialogue about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the 2019 Leadership Summit

At Villanova, we work to live the mission of the University by employing the Augustinian values of Veritas, Unitas and Caritas as we come together in community to learn and work.

The 2019 Leadership Summit will explore how, as Villanovans, we can live our Catholic mission more fully by fostering a sense of welcome, belonging and inclusion for all people in our workplaces, in our communities and in our daily lives.

Date: Thursday, October 24, 2019 
Time: 8 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. 
Location: Villanova University

Keynote Speaker

We are excited to announce Wes Moore as our Keynote Speaker for this all-day personal and professional development event. Moore is the CEO of Robin Hood, one of the largest anti-poverty forces in the nation. He is a bestselling author, a combat veteran, and a social entrepreneur. Moore previously spoke on campus in 2014 when his book, The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates, was selected for the One Book Villanova program. The Villanova community is delighted to welcome him back!

About the Leadership Summit 

The Leadership Summit is a biennial event, hosted by the Villanova University Alumni Association, that provides day-long programming to support the ongoing intellectual, social, spiritual, personal and professional development of the Villanova community. Through the University’s uniquely Augustinian Catholic lens, this signature event educates and empowers attendees to confront today’s most pressing issues—from Collaboration and Innovation in Healthcare (2015) to Women Igniting Change (2017).

Thank you to the members of our advisory group for their hard work and dedication.
