Leadership Institute for Department Chairs

Apr 13, 2008 - Apr 16, 2008
Crowne Plaza Riverwalk San Antonio, Texas United States

Highlights: The Call for Leadership
Department chairs have often seen themselves as scholars who, out of a sense of duty, temporarily take responsibility for the administrative tasks of the department. However, most agree that the times of "amateur administration" are over. The position of chairperson is one of leadership, and the demands it poses are significant. From the stress and conflict inherent in the position to the cost to academic careers and personal lives, the position is unique within the academy and institution. Those accepting the role need access to leadership development designed specifically for them.
