Below is a list of valuable resources for those interested in developing strategies for navigating change, identifying a network for support during change leadership processes, and more.

About the Event

Change in higher education can take many forms, as can the ways campus leaders approach it. Focused on how individuals who identify as women show up as leaders, this webinar explored some of these forms and approaches.

The presenters were seasoned leaders from varied higher education contexts who have navigated transition and transformation successfully—facilitating changes to roles and responsibilities amid disruption, leading in interim roles and during significant changes in institutional leadership. In addition to identifying types of transformation, including rethinking instructional modalities and how people work, the presenters addressed communication, trust, and well-being.

This interactive event helped participants:

  • recognize and celebrate your own experiences with transition and transformation, identifying the strengths revealed and developed through those experiences;
  • develop strategies for navigating current and future transformation by gaining clarity on the questions that senior leaders ask;
  • identify a network and personal “board of directors” to support you during change leadership processes and explore how to utilize these resources.
