Urban League recruiting for 2015 class of Urban Leadership Alliance Seminar (ULAS) |
 The Urban Leadership Alliance Seminar (ULAS) is designed as a vehicle through which African American men exhibiting high potential as a future leader are coached, educated and prepared for higher levels of leadership and responsibility within their respective companies. Through ULAS, participants accelerate their personal career path which ultimately increases the number of African American men in upper level positions within the Louisville community.
The nine monthly sessions are divided into three core areas: Self-awareness, Leadership Skill Development and Tactical Skill Application. Programming includes reading, film studies, dialogue with discussion and analysis, exercises related to the workplace, and tools participants can take with them after each session. ULAS offers participants the opportunity to self-initiate a mentoring/ coaching relationship with an accomplished African American executive.
