Clearly the list of 8 broad topics needs to be narrowed down so we can focus on developing the 3 content areas that will actually be presented. The first step in the process was checking in with our pool of faculty to gauge their interest and availability. Because we work with a limited pool of faculty – and they each teach in their areas of expertise – their availability is a big factor in determining what content we can present.
At this point we’ve talked to the faculty who would most likely teach each content area. We received a great deal of interest, but had to remove some of the options from the list. The broad topics still under consideration are:
- Finance/ financial management
- Managing teams/ individuals
- Power and influence/ managing change
- Innovation processes/ group dynamics
- Network mapping – how to think strategically about how you build relationships
- Negotiation
As we continue to discuss the content possibilities, I’ll flesh out what each of these might look like in more detail – so definitely check back if you’re curiosity is piqued. And don’t forget to let us know what you think – how is this for a start? Are there some topics here that have potential in terms of being valuable leadership skills and appropriate for an in-person event?
