Meet Stephen - Liberty University 2016 Graduate in Human Resources

I have always had a passion for the development/growth of people; and how, as a leader, I can play a major role in this area. I saw through the Leadership Development Program I had an opportunity to not only grow as a leader but to impact others in their growth as leaders as well. I was also intrigued by the fact that I would be working for Chick-fil-A, and who wouldn't love that? 
 Currently, Stephen is an X.C.C.L. graduate and accepted a position as a Director of People at a local Chick-fil-A.

Meet Jazmine - Randolf Macon College 2015 Graduate in Vocals

 I have been working with Chick-fil-a for several years. Fortunately, I knew that as soon as I graduated from college I would want to be a part of this wonderful opportunity and journey. I have personally grown from this experience in just the past year alone. I have also had the time of my life getting to know and grow with others that share a similar passion with me. I have been given so many opportunities throughout this program that I will never take for granted. I currently have the privilege to be the Director of Operations; all because of this journey. My big dream is to one day become an Operator of my own Chick-fil-A franchise. I know and believe that with the help of God and also with the help of the great leaders around me, I will one day become that Operator. This program is the jump-start to my beautiful journey. Currently, Jazmine is working for Chick-fil-A Corporate as a Grand Opening Trainer.

Meet Grant - Liberty University 2015 Graduate in Public Relations and Marketing

I originally joined X.C.C.L. to gain experience on how to effectively run a business so that one day I can become a business owner. It wasn't until I was in the program for a couple of months that I realized the potential to actually be an Owner/Operator within Chick-fil-A. I hope to gain more experience on how to truly lead a team efficiently towards our goals. Currently, Grant built on his knowledge with Chick-fil-A to accept an external role.
