Webinar: Healing in Leadership
Date and Time: Friday, October 15, 2021 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm U.S. Eastern Time
This session considers how leaders can cultivate a practice of healing. Healing can involve observing the overall well-being of the people around us, validating their concerns, and being available and present; healing is focused on empowering teams and making space for new voices. In a recent piece in Inside Higher Ed, Annmarie Caño observes, “...if part of our job is to develop and sustain the vitality of our units, then we also need to care about the health and wellness of our people as they work to create a healthy future for themselves and for others. That sounds like healing to me.”
In this session, we invite leaders, both in leadership positions and in spirit, to participate in small group conversations about healing practices that contribute to departmental, collegial, and personal well-being. We will collect and share observations about actions that contribute to healing in our workplaces that range from interpersonal communication to disrupting unhelpful structures when necessary.
