You may be familiar with Academic Impressions’ Five Paths to Leadership℠ Framework. Perhaps you’ve taken the self-assessment and used it to gain a greater awareness of your natural leadership style. The self-assessment is a useful tool that allows for reflection and self-discovery. But did you know that you can also get a customized 2-day intensive training that utilizes team’s composite scores? The benefit of such a training is that it allows you to examine how your team prefers to operate, which can reveal a lot about its group dynamics. For instance, the team profile may reveal how fast or slow the group is to make decisions, or how they handle stressful situations. The training can be invaluable for moving the team beyond those roadblocks. Join us online for a moderated discussion, and hear how three campus leaders—Dr. Schnavia Hatcher, Dr. Sebrena Jackson, and Ruth Pionke, MBA—used the multi-day tailored team development training to bring more cohesion to their teams. Each will share how facilitated team development work impacted their initiatives, and they’ll explain the results they are seeing as they relate to increased psychological safety, trust, and team performance. If you’re looking for ways to improve the way your team works together, this discussion is for you!

As a supervisor or leader, responding to difficult faculty or staff is some of the most stressful but rewarding work you can do—if you can do it right. Addressing difficult behavior in those who work for you can transform your team from closed off and avoidant to effective and collaborative. But how do you do this work? Join us for an in-person workshop to learn how to effectively manage difficult behaviors on your team while still leading with empathy. This unique experience will allow you to: It can take years to perfect the art of managing difficult faculty or staff when you’re doing it on your own. Come to this workshop and jump-start the process to give yourself a leg up on the most taxing part of your job.
Join us for a workshop where you will learn how to intervene with and correct the most problematic performances and behaviors within your team. Within the workshop, you will be introduced to the “EM & EM” model, which includes four increasingly authoritative steps intended to engage, set expectations for behavioral change, communicate consequences for non-compliance, and minimize the ill effects of bad behaviors on others. We will also address the unique aspects of higher education culture that complicate employee oversight—including tenure, union contracts, and ill-defined leadership structures. This workshop will provide multiple opportunities for you to both apply this model to your unique context and practice these difficult conversations with other leaders experiencing similar challenges. You’ll be encouraged to bring your most difficult personnel scenarios to the group for practice and valuable feedback. Throughout the workshop, you’ll also develop an intervention plan specifically tailored to the challenging people you’re managing, and it will also document how the EM & EM model can help you to customize your approach to your toughest situations. You’ll walk away from this workshop feeling more comfortable, confident, and ready to take on your most difficult conversations.

The issues facing Title IX Coordinators are continuing to become more complex. Many who are new to the role are struggling to find their footing, and even those with more experience are finding it hard to get accustomed to the continually shifting legal landscape and uncertainty. Additionally, there are some of us who are implementing the 2024 Title IX regulations, while others, who are impacted by one of the injunctions, are holding steady with the 2020 Title IX regulations but have the 2024 compliant policies ready to go at a moment’s notice. Join us for this comprehensive learning experience, designed to prepare you with the skills, tools, and resources you need to be confident in your role while leading Title IX compliance efforts on your campus. We will address a wide range of responsibilities, such as: This conference isn’t like your typical association event. So what makes it different? 1) Hands-On Practice: This event is your opportunity to practice real-life scenarios and case studies, all designed to address the most pressing—and sometimes isolating—challenges you face in your role. 2) Real-Time Planning: You’ll be able to apply what you’re learning in real time by creating tangible plans and resources you can […]
Deans across higher education are tackling some of the biggest challenges yet. Take, for instance, declining student enrollments (and the reduced budgets that follow) and the low levels of faculty morale and engagement (which, in turn, lead to high turnover). Let’s face it—these are big problems that take a village to solve. And yet, you probably feel like the responsibility to remedy these challenges falls largely on your shoulders. So how can you convene others across your college to become part of the village that can help you to tackle these challenges? Join us online for a highly interactive experience where you’ll learn how you can elicit the best thinking in your unit. During this workshop, you’ll participate in a simulated activity which will demonstrate how you can design and facilitate a collaborative and interactive meeting or brainstorming session with your team. You’ll walk away with a detailed facilitation guide and tips for how to implement this practice on your campus. If you’re looking for ways to reinvigorate your meetings and workshops, this training is for you!
