| Summary: | Do students’ experiences on university campuses cultivate motivation to lead or a sense of readiness to lead that does not necessarily translate to active leadership? To

Student leadership opportunities, global leadership perspective development, leadership modeling, quality of staff support, and quality of leadership training programs
contributed significantly more to leadership readiness than to motivation to lead.
