Alborn-Yilek and Schares Present at WELC on Lessons in Leadership
Dr. Sue Alborn-Yilek and Dr. Denise Schares are representing UNI's Educational Leadership Department in Lincoln, NE for the 30th annual 'Women in Educational Leadership Conference'
The title of their presentation is 'More Lessons in Leadership' and the session explores lessons in leadership with engaging stories, practical advice and a sense of humor as two university assistant professors share insights and encouragement with other leaders. It is a continuation of a session presented during the 2015 annual conference that resulted in a request for additional opportunities to explore the topic.
Individuals from all 50 states and 11 countries have attended or given presentations at the annual WELC, and is a great platform for networking.
Well done, Dr. Alborn-Yilek & Dr. Schares!
Principal support session #1
Great hour of sharing issues, dilemmas and successes. Hope to see more joining us next session. Thanks for coordinating Dr. Sue!
