Monday, July 20, 12pm – 5pm at Augsburg College

Led by (Gustavus Adolphus College) and Susan Hasseler (Augustana University, Sioux Falls, SD)

As we look forward to significant turnover in executive leadership in higher education in the next few years, we have a unique opportunity to strengthen gender diversity in leadership in Lutheran colleges and universities. Considering the ways in which we can support women’s success in higher education leadership at all levels, from department and division heads to the presidency, is one of our essential tasks as we explore the vocation of a Lutheran college.

The objective of this VOALC 2015 pre-conference session is to promote women’s leadership development at ELCA colleges and universities.  In this session the participants will:

•     Explore state-of-the-art leadership development strategies for women in higher education.
•     Engage with current ELCA women in leadership, including a president, vice-president, and a division leader, in an interactive panel discussion.
•     Create an individual development plan for your own career.
