Leadership Development Badge Recipients

Credentialed Leaders Prepared to Make a Lasting Impact

The Leadership Development Badge is a formal recognition awarded to Washington University in St. Louis students who have completed a rigorous, competency-based leadership development program through the Bauer Leaders Academy. This badge is more than a symbol—it’s a verified credential that reflects the recipient’s intentional growth, dedication, and demonstrated ability to lead with purpose.

To earn the badge, students completed a series of structured workshops, applied learning experiences, and guided reflections that strengthened core leadership competencies:

• Self-awareness and values-based decision-making
• Collaborative leadership across diverse teams
• Ethical and inclusive practice
• Civic engagement and community impact

Students who earn this distinction have invested significant time and effort into developing their leadership identity and practice. They are equipped with the tools, mindset, and adaptability to lead with integrity in professional, academic, and community settings.
