The programs seek to connect leaders from across the Mohawk Valley and “inspire them to think and lead in new and innovative ways to make a positive difference in our region,” per a Mohawk Valley Community College (MVCC) news release.
Leadership Mohawk Valley (LMV) is a 10-month program in which established professionals get an “in-depth, behind-the-scenes” look at the Mohawk Valley and its businesses, engage and network with community leaders, and complete a project.
Leadership Academy is a 10-month program for early-career professionals looking to “discover the impact one person can make on organizational culture.” Participants will learn about various leadership styles; strategies for developing their communication, management, and emotional intelligence skills; and how to build networks.
Supervisors Institute is a 10-month program for mid-career professionals who want to develop a “more advanced” understanding of leadership principles and build a “supervisory tool kit to be a more positive role model for their teams.”
Participants will learn new ways to handle difficult conversations and change, how to “sharpen their solution-focused” perspective, and expand their professional and personal networks.
