Please read what the some of the 300 members from over 140 colleges and universities across the country are saying about Electus Society:
“I have taken numerous leadership courses in the past, but I liked how Electus Society covered real life skills that have never been covered in these other past leadership courses. I feel like I am now prepared for all areas of my life.”
-Emily Willen, Lehman College
“Electus Society was such an amazing way to connect with other members and hear their experiences and share stories. It gave me inspiration and really made me feel like I was a part of a real community.”
-Alexis Gorin, College of Staten Island
"There was so much useful information, beyond what I've ever received in other trainings. As someone who has forty years' of work experience and huge amounts of training for management, I've never seen some of this material before."
-Elizabeth Davis, East Carolina University
"What I liked most about this program is how detailed it was about different leadership practices that I can use as a student leader. This program gave me insight about leadership practices that I will use now and even my career. I felt like this program opened my eyes to where I lacked skills in leadership and how I can better improve myself as a person.
-Kori Bryan, Georgia Southern University - Statesboro Campus
"Every training is amazing in its own way and I loved how Tim would use examples from his own life to help us understand more. I learned a lot from Tim and it is really hard to choose what specific topic I enjoyed the most because they are all so amazing, helpful, and applicable to your daily life and to help yourself grow as an individual and leader. "
-David Mann, Kennesaw State University

The below measurements are based on the 2021 pre and post assessment surveys of the Spring 2021 program. Note: 137 individuals applied, 94 were selected. 46 successfully completed the program.
Learning “About” Leadership vs “Step-by-Step Guide on How to Be A Leader” - Some colleges provide similar leadership development training for individuals through workshops and conferences based on established leadership models: servant leadership, social change, etc... While many workshop presenters and speakers are very good and beneficial, providing motivation and inspiration to students about being leaders….they are missing a “step by step guide” on “how to” be leaders.
In addition, Electus Society provides different levels of leadership development for professionals in the workforce or who are serving in government, or non-profits.
Students Are Not Prepared for Real World Leadership in the Private Sector - Most student leaders graduate college with leadership experience that largely consists of organizing small-scale social events. In today’s political climate, many students believe that being a student leader is signing petitions and protesting to administrators or politicians on what they don’t like. While these activities certainly have their place as important tools for grassroots organizing, they do relatively little to prepare students for the demands and challenges of the real world in both public and private sectors.
Bigger Egos With Less Respect and Integrity - What is worse, some current student leaders are developing a greater sense of ego and self-importance driven in large part by social media, lack of education on topics such as critical thinking, communication and persuasion. How can students be the next generation of leaders when they believe that being a leader is to 1) demonize or silence those who disagree with them as demonstrated by “cancel culture” and 2) by “virtue signaling” - posting on social media that they support a cause. How can you measure progress if you don’t have any metrics or measurement for making positive social change?
Electus Society Values: Service, Honesty, Mentorship, Advocacy, Respect, Teamwork/Collation Building, Followership, Integrity, Turning away from the Darkside of Leadership, Communication, and Humility.
