Join us for a Fall 2025 workshop series on the theory and practice of leadership. This nine-part series will alternate between expert speakers and opportunities to reflect on and apply what we learn. Topics include inclusive leadership, communication strategies, project management, and leading from below Whether you plan to pursue a job inside or outside of the academy, these sessions will provide a framework for developing your profile as a leader.
