Just finished preparing presentations for two upcoming conferences -
"Lessons from History: Ethical Leadership" for the
American Institute of Architects 2009 Minnesota Convention
and
"Using Incredibly Useful Free Web Tools to Maximize Your Training Mission" for the
the American Society for Training and Development 2009 Regional Conference
Really looking forward to both. Here's the text of the workshop bulletin for the architect's conference:
Just as ancient structures or historical buildings inspire current design trends and architectural constructions, historical characters have much to tell us about modern leadership and ethical behavior under difficult circumstances. By looking at several key Revolutionary War leaders and the challenges they faced, we take away insights that inform our relationships with colleagues, building partners and clients. This program will emphasize four key concepts underlying ethical leadership development: casting a vision, character formation, overcoming adversity, and continuous learning.
