Women鈥檚 Way of Leading: Exploring the Call to Lead
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.

- 聽 聽聽Explore state-of-the-art leadership development strategies for women in higher education.
