Excellence in Leadership Program nominations open through Feb. 7 Megan Maneval Mon, 12/23/2024 - 12:08

The Excellence in Leadership Program (ELP), hosted by the CU system Employee Services office, provides an exceptional opportunity for faculty from the four CU campuses and system office to become effective leaders. ELP fellows participate in a nine-month (August–April) program designed to broaden their understanding of the University of Colorado and to equip them with the skills needed for effective leadership.

Eligibility and commitment

The CU Boulder faculty nomination and selection process occurs in the spring semester. CU Boulder selects eight faculty fellows annually.
Eligible nominees include tenured faculty who have shown their commitment to the university and their potential as future leaders. They may or may not currently serve in a leadership position.
The program involves a significant time commitment from August to April that begins with a two-day retreat and monthly workshops held at the four CU campuses and the CU system office (see the 2024–25 schedule as an example; dates vary annually). Additionally, fellows engage in monthly conversations with CU Boulder senior leaders on the CU Boulder campus from September to April.

Interested? Learn more about the program and indicate your interest to your dean so they may consider nominating you (faculty self-nominations are not accepted). Nominations are due Feb. 7, and successful nominees and their deans will be notified by April 30.

All nominations and questions should be emailed to Merinda McLure, faculty director of academic leadership development.

Faculty Leadership Institute accepting applications through April 29 Anonymous (not verified) Fri, 04/12/2024 - 14:34

The Faculty Leadership Institute (FLI) is dedicated to identifying, nurturing and supporting emerging leaders as they chart their course toward advanced academic leadership roles. Each cohort, consisting of 12–15 faculty members, actively engages with campus leaders in targeted discussions about prevalent campus issues while honing essential leadership skills.

Throughout the academic year, FLI holds monthly meetings structured around engagements with campus leadership and leadership skill development. During these sessions, leaders discuss their experiences in their current positions, share insights into their leadership journey, and participate in open discussions on faculty-related concerns. Additionally, valuable opportunities for leadership training are provided by certified experts during the leadership development workshops.

To complement the formal monthly meetings, cohort members are welcome to join informal gatherings to foster a sense of connectedness and camaraderie within the cohort.

Faculty members interested in participating should submit their application by April 29. Preference is given to teaching associate professors and senior instructors, although all ranks are welcome to apply.

Please visit the FLI website to learn more or submit a nomination. Contact Anu Sharma, faculty fellow for the Faculty Leadership Insititute, with additional questions.
