We respond to the question “how can the integration of counter narratives into leadership education – all while integrating diverse perspectives into our leadership education conversation so the complexity we now understand to be true can be revealed?” The exploration creates opportunities to deepen the diversity, equity, and inclusion discourse incorporated into graduate leadership education programs.

The Haddix Dean's Fellows program consists of several curricular and co-curricular elements, including cohort-based seminars, a common summer read, an annual retreat, social and cultural activities, and a concluding leadership immersion experience. Learning formats throughout the four years included lectures, small and large group discussions, and workshops. For the immersion experience, the Dean's Fellows participated in preparatory lectures that included information on cultural intelligence, anticipatory reflection, Ignatian leadership, and discernment, as well as topical information. In order to ensure and improve program outcomes, assessment processes were developed, and data included both quantitative and qualitative measures. Rothausen provided a theoretical framework that aligns secular leadership development models with Ignatian leadership. 1 Unfortunately, validated measures of Ignatian leadership do not exist to date. To address this limitation, we utilized instruments drawn from the field of leadership studies that logically approximate values and practices found within the Ignatian leadership paradigm. We also conducted a focus group with students completing the 4-year experience and collected pre-and post-program reflection papers. Results from both quantitative and qualitative approaches along with both practical and pedagogical suggestions are offered for those seeking to build a similar program.

Through their shared interest in leadership, especially an interest in Ignatian leadership, the following dialogue emerged. Kelly works in our institution as a theologian and former director of academic service-learning, and Moss Breen works in the graduate school directing an interdisciplinary leadership EdD program. Their backgrounds and fields are different, but their interest in Ignatian leadership is a common thread between them. Kelly starts the conversation and Moss Breen responds in kind.
