2022 Nell and John Wooden Ethics in Leadership Award Celebration

By Janey Roeder

Save the Date

The Ukleja Center for Ethical Leadership invites you to save the date for its Nell and John Wooden Ethics in Leadership Award event at the Terrace Theater on October 20, 2022. 

Come mix and mingle with friends during an outdoor reception on the beautiful Terrace Plaza followed by an intimate dinner on the stage with our honoree, Taryn Williams.

Taryn will share her powerful story of Turning Trauma into Triumph.  As a former foster youth and formerly incarcerated woman, Taryn challenges our misconceptions about people’s life experiences.  Taryn’s leadership journey demonstrates the importance of education, inclusion, respect, gratitude, and second chances. 

Enclosed are event details along with sponsorship opportunities and benefits.  In addition to celebrating the visionary leadership legacies of Coach Wooden and Taryn Williams, your presence will support the Ukleja Center’s vision of integrating an ethics module in every CSULB course. 

Tickets are $300 for individuals and table sponsorships range from $3,000 to $20,000.  For more information or to secure your sponsorship, please contact Janey Roeder at jane.roeder@csulb.edu or (562) 985-8600.  We look forward to sharing this inspirational evening with you and your guests!
