Overview
One of the most challenging barriers new leaders must overcome is the lack of confidence they often face when starting a new role. Whether they are first-time leaders or assuming a higher level of responsibility, new leaders must grapple with such internal pressures as misplaced emotions, preconceptions, and negative self-talk. Learning how to identify and combat these pressures can help them to successfully navigate the transition into leadership.
Join us for a discussion session expanding on our recent event, Building Confidence as a New Leader: Overcoming Internal Barriers. Using case studies and focused reflection questions, our expert will help you to tackle and overcome your own internal barriers to leadership. You will have the opportunity to network with fellow new leaders in higher education and also to reflect on your own personal experience to help validate your leadership experience.
How It Works
This discussion series, consisting of two live events taking place on April 25 and May 10, has been designed to help you to reflect on your internal barriers to a new leadership role and to strategize specific ways to overcome them.
You may choose to sign up for one or both discussion sessions. We will cover similar themes in each, but we will use different case studies, and attendees will have the opportunity to ask specific questions.
Make the Most of this Series
During each live event, we will discuss and explore the content from the recent live training, Building Confidence as a New Leader: Overcoming Internal Barriers. Although it is not necessary to watch the recorded training before attending the discussion sessions, we strongly recommend that you do so in order to make the most of the experience.
