Effective leaders are needed in all fields, particularly in human services, education, health, recreation, business, governments and the volunteer sector.

Learning Outcomes

Participants will examine models for effective leadership, integrate theory with community and workplace leadership practice, and learn how to capitalize on diversity, guide work teams and be open and responsive to change.
