Mission and Values

The Caldwell Fellows develop the next generation of self-aware, globally-minded humans who engage in creative, conscientious leadership.

Our Values

Servant-Leadership

In service-based leadership, we engage in the continuous, voluntary exercise of mutual influence between ourselves and others toward a common purpose.

Principled Reflection

According to our principles and as a practice, we deliberately cultivate knowledge of our character and critically consider our purpose in our environment.

Personal Development

In exploring the challenges of personal betterment, we are committed to fostering ongoing self-discovery and improvement within ourselves and others.

Rigorous Integrity

We uphold honesty and honor, despite our limitations, via meticulous empathy, discipline, and humility. 

Authentic Self

In pursuit of who we want to be, we endeavor to become more fully human through genuine interactions and openness within our communities.

We strive toward these values by engaging in a continuous process of hands-on learning involving active engagement, personal reflection, meaningful feedback, and active listening.
