The Office of the Senior Vice President and Provost is pleased to announce a call for nominations for the 2021-22 cohort of the Emerging Leaders Academy (ELA). The Emerging Leaders Academy fosters and enhances leadership development of faculty and P&S staff currently serving in leadership roles, or those who aspire to such positions. ELA is offered annually to a select cohort of current and future institutional leaders. During the academic year, the ELA cohort participates in monthly leadership activities led by content experts and facilitators. The activities are designed to create self-reflection, develop contextual skills, and create leadership competencies.
This program will challenge and engage all levels of leaders to maximize their influence in the collective organization of their current and future positions. Learning outcomes are achieved through successful completion of modules examining important leadership competencies including strategic planning, budget development, performance management, understanding diversity, and creating an inclusive organizational culture. Emerging leaders will learn more about themselves as leaders while attaining skills that lead to outcomes of success for them and their organizations. Finally, cohort members will work in teams to complete a university-related capstone project as part of the leadership experience.
