Leadership Academy
The purpose of The Leadership Academy is to enhance and further develop leadership throughout the educational industry. The Leadership Academy provides opportunities for professionals to increase their awareness of industry issues, to learn the skills necessary to handle today's changes, and to discover the leadership potential within each of us.
The Leadership Academy has been developed for, and focuses on, the educational institution's administrative professionals. These include: facilities staff, buyers/purchasing agents, business/finance professionals, and auxiliary services professionals. The program is designed in tracks, with each track emphasizing a different perspective and type of leadership skill. The four tracks that comprise the Academy are:
Track I: Individual Effectiveness Skills
Track II: Interpersonal Effectiveness Skills
Track III: Managerial Effectiveness Skills
Track IV: Organizational Effectiveness Skills
Each track builds on one another, therefore you must complete Track I first. Participants remain in one track throughout the week. This immersion approach is designed to foster the development of strong professional relationships among participants. Completion of each track is required prior to filing for graduation from the program.
