The Broyhill Institute for Business Leadership was created by a grant from the
Broyhill Foundation in Lenoir, NC, to:

1. Encourage greater understanding of the workings of the American economic system, the values of private enterprise, and business leadership in a free society.

2. Develop the business, economic and leadership skills of future and current business persons.

3. Stimulate a values-centered study of business leadership and economic issues. 

To accomplish these purposes, the Institute engages in a variety of activities directed at both the College and the community. The Institute develops and supports forums, lectures, and seminars for the College and the Catawba Valley area. Each year the Institute, in cooperation with the Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students, sponsors the Broyhill Leadership Mentor Program. The Mentor Program
provides individual and group activities designed to develop and strengthen the
leadership skills and attitudes of an invited group of Lenoir-Rhyne College
sophomores. Leadership development grants support both faculty and student
participation in a variety of conferences and seminars. The Institute provides support
for curriculum development in the business administration, economics and other
academic departments as well as program support for Phi Beta Lambda, the college
business fraternity.

Further information on the program for the Institute may be obtained from the
Director, Professor William Mauney.
