Ignite your leadership potential
July 26, 2024 —
Symbolizing strength, resilience and unity, the bison holds profound significance for Indigenous cultures across Turtle Island. It’s fitting, then, that the Bison Spirit Indigenous Leadership Program draws its name from this mighty animal. A new co-curricular program at the University of Manitoba (UM), Bison Spirit allows Indigenous students to explore their strengths and potential as leaders, both on UM campuses and in community.
