Enhanced Leadership: Essential Strategies for Auxiliary Program Management
Auxiliary and Summer Directors have a very unique leadership role in schools and the programs they lead and are gaining greater recognition as key levers for schools to pull to advance strategic priorities and deliver on the mission. Directors are often in charge of a large domain with a lot of responsibility, yet they are also positioned somewhere in middle management or at least report to someone else. Auxiliary and summer program directors are also often unique in the necessity for them to interact with all facets of the school (i.e. facilities, security, academic depts., athletics, etc.). Unlike other roles in a school, auxiliary and summer have to be both entrepreneurial and stick to a budget--earning the money that they spend. This complex mixture creates both challenges and opportunities in leading these programs. This workshop will be heavy on conceptual frameworks for thinking about leadership, understanding your style of leadership, strategic planning, and a "scrapbook" of recipes, models, and tools for being an effective manager and team leader. Claim your rightful place by leading in, leading up, and leading the way!
