Leading from the Middle

Who Should Attend

If you are new to a position of formal leadership in the community and technical college system, an administrator new to Washington State, or you have never had any training for your administrative role, this workshop will help you make the transition from staff or faculty to administrator. We will discuss how to hire and evaluate staff, develop teams and direct the work of those who report to you. We will also review key system and organizational issues and how budgeting works at state and local levels. You will leave with a profile of your own approach to leadership and easy-to-use tools to specifically address areas you want to improve.
