Abstract
Student Associations are an invaluable tool for fostering leadership skills and growth. Student associations usually exist to fulfil students' needs in their study journey while at the university. Whether it is the need for infrastructure development or good academics results in enjoyable student-to-student social experiences. The students of the student association engage with stakeholders, and school faculties, hold meetings, organize sporting events with other universities and so forth. While these students join the associations to support each other as experts, outcomes are also a win-win situation as they inherit various expertise and skills for their future careers. These include leadership skills, character building, increased confidence, and expert guidance to accomplish their goals and tasks. Student associations also offer a platform to practice communication, problem-solving, and decision-making. Through collaboration with peers, students can learn to navigate difficult conversations and find creative solutions to challenging problems. This type of experience is invaluable for developing future leaders. This literature discusses the influences of student associations when it comes to the leadership development of a student.
