Mentors that Matter: International Student Leadership Development and Mentor Roles

The Unique Context of Identity‐Based Student Organizations in Developing Leadership

“…One of the key outcomes derived from involvement in identity‐based organizations is leadership self‐efficacy (LSE; Poon, ; Renn & Ozaki, ). This is particularly important given research that has shown low LSE among students of color and women and the importance of this LSE as a key predictor of leadership capacity (Dugan & Komives, ; Kodama & Dugan, ).…”
