L.E.a.D. with Wisdom - Leadership through Engagement

Building leadership capacity – one community at a time. Marva Wisdom has coined the acronym L.E.a.D. (Leadership, Engagement, and Diversity), in order to breakdown the message of an important way forward for community and country. This formula is intended to explore the positive aspects of the rich cultural heritage of our community and challenge us to enhance and devise new and sustainable strategies in building effective networks. An engaged followership and leadership, inclusive of the rich diversity of our community, strengthens our capacity to grow, prosper and leave a legacy, benefitting our generation and beyond.

LEADERSHIP; community leadership through individual, group, or corporate action.



ENGAGEMENT; citizen engagement fostering democratic dialogue and stronger community.

  • "When she talks to U of G students about giving a little more time to do a lot more in the community, Wisdom speaks from the heart. As chair of the countywide United Way fundraising drive in 2011, she led Guelph and Wellington to a total of $3.14 million in donations. At 10 per cent above goal, it was the most successful community campaign in Canada. The U of G campus was a big part of that success, with staff, faculty and students contributing $551,000."
