UMSL is excited toannounce that as a part of a larger initiative at UMSL to invest in leaders, we are now accepting applications for the inaugural cohort of UMSL’s Emerging Leaders Program. Aspiring, emerging, and new faculty and staff leaders are invited to apply. This year-long, cohort-based program for both faculty and staff is a collaborative program among Academic Affairs, Human Resources, and the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and led by an advisory board of UMSL faculty and staff leaders. The program is designed to develop leadership competencies within the university setting, build and strengthen relationships across units and roles, and increase our capacity to transform lives.

In this program, you will:

  • Gain greater self- and others- awareness
  • Share and discuss leadership concepts, strategies, and perspectives
  • Apply leadership concepts via case studies and workshops
  • Connect with other leaders, build community, and grow your network
  • Learn to lead more effectively in the context of higher education today

The program will include two, full day, offsite retreats each term as well as opportunities to connect informally in-between.
