The former Coordinator of one of the largest university leadership development programs in the country, Drew Dudley nevertheless embraces the idea that "leadership cannot really be taught. It can only be learned." "I've never thought of what I do as 'teaching' leadership," says Drew. "For me, it's always been about trying to find a way to help others explore the concept -- what it means to them, and to their communities." Drew has helped raise over $3 million as the Founder or Chair of several organizations dedicated to supporting scholarship funds, social entrepreneurship, and charitable initiatives, including a record-breaking term as the National Chair of Canada's largest fundraiser for post-secondary students, "Shinerama: Students Fighting Cystic Fibrosis".
