Class description

Accelerating Leadership Development

Leadership development at all levels of professional experience can be accelerated by understanding what theories, capabilities, and motivation fosters leader and follower effectiveness.  Before you can engage in acquiring these new capabilities and skills, you first need to be in a position of being ready and willing to learn and develop. This course will provide insight into unlocking both the motivation and abilities related to launching your leadership development. 
 
Our past participants have been health and safety professionals looking to motivate others to foster safety compliance, to face challenges in working with other departments to bring about the adoption of fast-changing requirements in the workplace. Participants will complete an online self-survey to explore their motivation and ability to understand how to activate positive leadership capabilities, which we refer to as leader developmental readiness.
 
 

This course serves as the key required course for individuals enrolling in the joint UW DEOHS CE/OHWC Total Worker Health Certificate Program. Individuals not seeking the TWH Certificate may enroll and attend the course as a standalone.

Courses are virtual and instructor led on Tuesday afternoons, 3:00pm-5:30pm Pacific Time.
