Workshop

Title:

Leading from the Inside Out: Know Thyself Before You Lead Others!

August 24, 26, & 28, 2009
Registration Deadline: August 7

Hartley Conference Room, Mitchell Earth Sciences Building

If someone were to ask you if you are a leader or ever plan to be, what would your answer be? Even though you might be quick to respond with a resounding NO, the fact is, you will eventually find yourself managing and leading others whatever career you choose. Being an effective manager/leader requires hard work and training. The Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Education (VPGE) is sponsoring a workshop to help you prepare.

This workshop will help you assess some of your core leadership strengths and areas for development. The focus will be on three areas:

• How do you behave under stress and what behaviors may be derailing your interpersonal effectiveness with others?
• How are you perceived by others in terms of thinking strategically, influencing others, building relationships, achieving results?
• How do you handle changing circumstances and how should you work with (or manage) others who have very different strengths and challenges?

 

Participants must attend all three workshops. Registration deadline is August 7. To learn more and sign up, go to the VPGE website . Space is limited so sign up ASAP.
