Uncommon Leadership Award Dinner
Welcome to our Uncommon Leadership Award Dinner
At Williamson College, we’re passionate about the kind of learning that inspires the student to think of their personal contribution beyond the classroom. We value a community where questions are valued and service is esteemed. We’re about building higher learning—around real life—and giving you the wingspan you need to succeed.
Uncommon Leadership at Williamson College
At Williamson College, we believe in cultivating uncommon leadership that goes beyond the ordinary. Our approach to leadership focuses on character, integrity, and an authentic call to serve others based on the nature and character of God. With a passion for transforming the world, we honor and recognize those who have exhibited this unique leadership quality at the annual Uncommon Leadership Awards Dinner.

Our Uncommon Leadership award is a recognition bestowed upon individuals who have demonstrated extraordinary leadership qualities. These leaders have shown courage, character, and conviction while prioritizing the needs of those they lead. Through servant leadership, they have uplifted others and made a significant impact in their respective fields.
