Tomorrow's Professor...Department Chair Leadership Institute Online Seminar Series 1: The Essentials

http://www.departmentchairs.org/online-programs/2-2

Plan ahead and get the essential training every new department chair needs by signing up for The Jossey-Bass Department Chair Leadership Institute Online Seminar Series 1: The Essentials.

Forget about everything you've seen or heard about webinars in the past this is completely different. We?ve worked closely with our technology partner, Learning Times, to create a totally unique, interactive experience. You'll get more direct interaction with the presenter, moderator, and attendees than you would at a face-to-face event vote in an instant poll, ask the presenter a question through the chat function, or submit answers to discussion questions in real time! The result is a dynamic sharing of practical take-aways that participants can immediately integrate into their own work as department chairs, and an instant network of peers that serves as an ongoing resource to all members of the larger cohort of participants.
We hope you’ll take advantage of this timely, economical opportunity and join us for these upcoming sessions in spring of 2011:

March 10, 2011: The Most Important Things You Need to Know (and Do) as a Department Chair
March 24, 2011: A Quick and Practical Guide to Managing Your Time and Stress?April 7, 2011: Best Practices in Effective Communication and Conflict Management
April 21, 2011: What Department Chairs Can Do to Foster Excellent Teaching
May 5, 2011: Best Practices in Budgeting, Resource Management, and Planning for Results

Attend from anywhere! All sessions last 90 minutes and begin at 11:30 am (Eastern Time)
