The mission of Scholars of Finance is to inspire character and integrity in the finance leaders of tomorrow.

We believe that leaders who are able to introspect and connect with their values are more successful and effective. Our proprietary seven-week Leadership Development Program (LDP) uses student-led learning to help members examine and develop their personal mission and values.

Ultimately, students will learn about who they are, decide what kind of leader they want to become and what values they want to live by, and how they can grow to become that leader and uphold their values with character.

Seven weeks of student-led learning and discussion for members to:

Examine
and develop personal mission and values.

Exchange
ideas with peers.

Establish
necessary habits & disciplines to become principled financial leaders.

"In the midst of busyness it’s easy to lose who you really are or the things you truly believe in. Through the LDP, I was able to have a rest in mindset."

"Since completing the LDP, I have truly changed the way I go about my current job in financial services. I ask myself 'does this decision satisfy my values' numerous times throughout each day. As a result, I am certain that my actions are contributing to the betterment of society..."

THE PROGRAM WAS DESIGNED WITH KEY PRINCIPLES.

  • We strive fervently to develop our members into the strongest leaders we can.
  • If we were a for-profit business our “members” would be our “customers” and we are committed to providing them return on their investment.
  • We’re exploring the leading opinions and research on principles, values, and character constantly.
  • We’re learning while we teach and actively seek diverse perspectives.

WE BELIEVE THAT THIS WILL BENEFIT ALL OF OUR STAKEHOLDERS.

  • Students, we will help you develop yourself into the principled and successful leader you want to become.
  • Executives, you can influence, educate, inspire, and leave the lasting legacy and impact you’re aspiring to build.
  • Corporate recruiters and managers, we believe you’ll be eager to hire a Scholar of Finance.
  • Young professionals, you’ll have the opportunity to develop people because you are already a Scholar of Finance at heart or on paper.
  • Universities, we believe your students will receive complimentary benefit from our program.
