Summer Webinar Series on Leadership Development

The Heartland Center for Leadership Development is pleased to announce a series of three webinars on developing community leadership in June, July and August of 2010. Each webinar will be designed to provide interaction, discussion and feedback. Webinar participants will receive a packet of downloadable training materials that include session powerpoints and readings. Registrants will also be able to view the webinar via recording so you can refresh your learning experience at any time. Webinars will last 60 minutes and will be hosted by an experienced team of Heartland Center trainers. Exact dates and times are still being determined so please check back often. This summer’s topics include:

• Leadership Styles and Practices: Learn what it means to be an effective leader. Assess your own leadership strengths and aspirations and create an action plan for building new skills and practices.
• Working with Groups: Managing effective meetings may seem simple, yet it's often a challenging job for community development practitioners, whose role includes leading diverse groups to consensus and beyond.
• Engaging the Community: Outlines practical strategies for strengthening the membership in your organization through community participation and volunteerism. Once that project is off the ground and you have enough help, this session will also help you maintain momentum.
