Stillman Leadership Center Named Top Program

Leadership Excellence Magazine (part of HR.com) has named The Gerald P. Buccino ’63 Center for Leadership Development at the Stillman School of Business the top program nationally among educational institutions. The award recognizes the world’s top leadership practitioners and programs. The announcement of the 2015 Leadership 500 Excellence Awards was made at the LEAD2015 forum in Dallas, Texas.

This year’s recipients were selected based on either an application or nomination, reviewed by HR.com‘s expert leadership panel, as well as feedback from the program’s participants. Hundreds of programs nationwide, including Ivy League institutions, apply for the awards each year.

The program at the Buccino Center is an intensive, 4-year program that includes diverse experiential and scholastic learning as well as executive mentoring and coaching within the framework of a Leadership Code of Conduct. Graduates of the program are employed at top companies throughout the nation, bringing their leadership center experience into the American corporate structure as well as their communities.

HR.com called the Buccino Leadership Program a role model of excellence for its focus on transforming leadership concepts into business practice. The mission of the center is to develop leaders who will be recognized for outstanding results, community service and for dedicating and caring for the people that they serve.

The center was made possible by a $1 million gift from Gerald P. Buccino ’63, Seton Hall Regent Emeritus and a nationally recognized pioneer of “turnaround management.”
