Leaders of Tomorrow is an inspiring series of personal conversations about leadership with alumni of Camp Rising Sun. Each episode emphasizes a different aspect of the CRS approach to leadership in relation to the guests' impact on their communities and the world. With the focus on individuals who are “leading where they are,” their personal stories highlight aspects of leadership that are central to the values of CRS such as community, resilience, diversity, ethical responsibility, and more. Their stories of leadership become a lens through which Camp Rising Sun is explained and explored, showing how it has changed—and is changing—the world.
