The success of Phi Delta Theta is strong leadership – leadership based upon our three Cardinal Principles. The Fraternity and the Phi Delta Theta Foundation created the Presidents Leadership Conference to develop leadership skills and provide training for each chapter’s newly elected president.  The inaugural conference was held in 2000 and it remains a staple in the Fraternity’s educational programming efforts.
