President’s and Provost’s Leadership Institute
- A Leadership Development Program for Ohio State Faculty
Successful academic leaders create a productive place for everyone to work. They must be able to motivate people to work well together; academic leaders rarely exercise their full authority, relying instead on the leadership skills of persuasion, coaching, and achieving consensus.
The Leadership Institute focuses on long-term faculty leadership development, its goal being to help leaders develop themselves and their leadership skill so as to become highly effective in the academic environment. The institute focuses on the nature of effective leadership, rather than on the tasks for which academic leaders are responsible.
The two-year Leadership Institute utilizes a variety of learning experiences, including:
- A series of twelve experiential workshops
- A project developed and completed by each participant
- A mentoring relationship with an experienced academic leader
- Small and informal interactive lunches with university leaders
- Lunch presentations by university leaders
