This issue of the JCLD continues our annual linkage with the National Character & Leadership Symposium (NCLS) that is held every February at the United States Air Force Academy. NCLS is a multiday, intentional focus on character and leadership. The NCLS brings together a wide range of local, national, and international leaders around a particular theme. The theme lines up with one of USAFA’s organizational outcomes. This year’s theme is Valuing Human Conditions, Cultures, and Societies. In order to support that endeavor, we have intentionally aligned the JCLD with NCLS so that the Journal can serve as a read ahead on the theme of NCLS to give attendees a chance to starting thinking about and processing the theme. We find this to be an intentional and important step in leader development.
About the Journal
The Journal of Character & Leadership Development (JCLD) is the leading publication dedicated to the research, measurement, understanding and application of character and leadership development. The aim of the JCLD is to stimulate and advance the scholarship of character and leadership development through submissions from all disciplinary perspectives and organizations that contribute to the knowledge of how character and leadership are effectively developed.
