The Fuqua/Coach K Center on Leadership & Ethics' (COLE) mission is to redefine leadership and develop leaders for emerging global challenges. The Center does so through research, education, as well as deepening and extending the way students, academics, and practitioners think about and practice business leadership and ethics in the 21st century. From supporting rigorous research, developing a leadership and ethics concentration for MBA students, developing a cadre of leadership fellows, to offering cutting edge executive education courses and hosting the Fuqua School of Business & Coach K Leadership Conference, the center is at the forefront of understanding and implementing how ethical leadership education and research needs to evolve for the new world. COLE's activities bridge theory and practice and provide numerous opportunities for involvement and learning to researchers, students and practitioners.
The Center is also developing a Women's Leadership Initiative (WLEAD) and Sport Business Leadership Initiative.
