The ability to lead is a valuable skill that can be further developed. Although existing graduate programs may not have available credit hours or available time to allocate to a formal leadership program there are still ways to incorporate activities and/or exercises to enhance our student’s abilities to become the next generation of effective leaders. In this webinar, speakers will present desired leadership skills that help advance individuals in their careers. The overall objective of this webinar is to introduce leadership elements that can be incorporated into existing student programs.

Objectives:

  1. Present examples of leadership components that are being incorporated into existing professional and postdoctoral programs.
  2. Introduce elements of leadership that can help shape students as future leaders.
  3. Provide the tools necessary to enable components of leadership training to be integrated into graduate programs.
