Positive and impactful academic leadership is critical for both institutional and individual wellbeing. The purpose of this PDW is to help faculty moving into academic leadership roles. Faculty members selected or asked to serve in academic leadership roles often have very little formal training and may struggle to resolve challenges and capitalize on opportunities We believe that the knowledge and skills acquired through is PDW is essential for academics to capitalize on leadership opportunities to enhance their own career trajectories and ensure positive impact on the careers of others and institutional performance.
