members in the United States, Africa, Asia, Canada, Europe and the Caribbean.
NSBE had its genesis in April 1975 in Region IV on the campus of Purdue University.

to our ability to succeed in fulfilling our Mission each year, reinforcing the national directives of NSBE,

Region V is known as the “Vanguard Region” because we have always led the way in pioneering new
programming and innovative methods for furthering the Mission of NSBE. We take pride in our
chapters and their ability to led by example and impact their respective communities while enriching our

REGIONAL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
August 8-10, 2014
The University of Arkansas
Fayetteville, AR
Regional Leadership Conference (RLC) focuses on building and honing the leadership
skills of the Chapter Executive Board members within Region V. Often times there are
leaders within a chapter who step up to positions of leadership and find themselves
searching for the right direction in which to lead their members. This conference serves the
purpose of providing the guidance necessary to elevate individual chapters by teaching
their leaders how to lead. We will conduct workshops aimed at teaching chapter executive
board members how to perform their roles effectively and efficiently. We provide the
framework that chapter officers need to drive their chapter in line with the Mission of
NSBE and the National Directives.
At the conference we will cover a range of topics that include chapter development, time
management, organizational logistics, fundraising, and business etiquette. Support of this
conference is a solid investment in the development of strong leadership skills that are vital
to the success of students studying to work in STEM related industries.
