The Leadership Essentials Workshop
For disability field leaders who are new (or new-ish) to leadership roles with supervision, management, and day-to-day accountability responsibilities
You got the job/the promotion/the new title! Now what?

Throughout the three sessions, we’ll cover core leadership topics to help you feel better prepared to succeed as an emerging disability field leader.
The Leadership Essentials Workshop will include NLCDD’s signature mix of short bursts of learning, applicable discussions, self-insight tools, real-world exercises, and take-home resources that you can immediately use on the job. This workshop is open to all, and is not limited to Leadership Institute graduates.

Why attend the NLCDD’s Leadership Essentials Workshop?
Leadership is tough; it just is. And in the disability field, we often get promoted to leadership roles because of the strengths we demonstrated in our previous positions, or because of our reliability and commitment to our work. The Leadership Essentials Workshop will help you actively learn and develop skills critical to emerging disability field leaders, starting with values of inclusion and belonging and incorporating best practices in management and leadership.
