The Leadership Educators Institute (LEI) has a rich history of convening professionals committed to leadership development for nearly 17 years.

Transforming Leadership Learning through Intentional Pedagogy 

Join The Role of Leadership Educators: Transforming Learning co-authors Dr. Kathy Guthrie and Dr. Dan Jenkins for this exciting and experiential pre-institute workshop!  During our time together, we will focus on the importance of learner-centric program development. First, we will introduce the Leadership Learning Framework and provide instructional and assessment strategies with the learner in mind.  Then, we will demonstrate how a variety of pedagogies such as discussion, reflection, feedback, team-based learning, AI,  and art may be intentionally integrated through this framework in co-curricular and curricular contexts.  Expect to participate in train-the-trainer style pedagogy demonstrations, learn about and share leadership educator professional development resources, and leave with transformational and implementable skills, tools, and programming you can bring back to your campuses.

Strategies for Cultivating an Anti-Racist Leadership Education Community

This interactive session features strategies from the recently published book 'Moving Towards Action: Centering Anti-Racism in Leadership Learning,' edited by Beatty and Manning-Ouellette. The institute will discuss key insights from the text chapters, focusing on integrating anti-racist principles into leadership education. The discussion will delve into theoretical and conceptual considerations, innovative research practices, and actionable strategies for fostering inclusivity and enhancing leadership development within higher education. Attendees will leave equipped with a comprehensive understanding of how to navigate and influence the future of anti-racist leadership education effectively. In an era where student activists often bear the primary burden of advocating for change, leadership educators play a pivotal role in guiding institutions toward more inclusive and equitable practices. Drawing from a combined 25+ years of experience in identity-based leadership education and in student affairs, the presenters of this session will explore the tempered radical approach for advancing racial justice in the context of leadership education.

Cameron C. Beatty, PhD
