Corporate & Employer Relations

Leading with Life Skills
As a leader, you’re looking for employees who will add value to your organization the very moment they come on board.

High Point University offers an important partnership oppor tunity for executives nationwide. HPU knows the skills needed to succeed never change.

We all need Life Skills development, regardless of our age, position or stature. Of course, you know that, or you wouldn’t have risen to the level of success you enjoy today.You’ll want to take a few minutes to review this brochure to understand how HPU prepares students for the world as it is going to be. You’ll also find practical takeaways, such as six questions you should be asking interviewees.

In the President’s Seminar on Life Skills that I teach to all freshmen, I always tell them that applying talents without thinking of values and principles is like using your car’s accelerator without touching the steering wheel.

That is true for all of us.

When we hire, we all need to think about what works best for our organization’s values and principles.We all know we are the sum total of the choices we have made in the past. But we also need to know that we can change what we are in the future through the choices we make today.

Let us all choose well. And as we challenge all our students at HPU:
Choose to be extraordinary!
