Navigating change (be it at the local, national, or global level) can dominate managers’ focus and strategies. A diverse group of international education leaders shares tools, resources, and insights in this interactive workshop. Participants will actively learn, engage, and (re)define purpose, place, and partnership, as they navigate their managerial roles. Explore different perspectives on case studies and scenarios, and leave with increased knowledge, deepened perceptions, and an expanded network of colleagues.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the basics of change leadership in international education, which includes but is not limited to geopolitical impacts, interest-holder engagement, people management, and resource and budget considerations..
  • Develop strategies for navigating a constantly shifting landscape by approaching situations collaboratively and with a partnership perspective.
  • Define new ways to create networks and communities of practice as a support tool to find, set reasonable workload expectations, and model a healthy work-life balance
  • Apply resources and tools to real-life management scenarios to better understand and navigate future situations.
