Two cohort-based, selective leadership development programs, the Chancellor's Leadership Program and Lead NOW (Network for Women) were under my purview and responsibilities included marketing, selection, onboarding, curriculum development, and assessment. An annual campus leadership awards selection process and banquet and global leadership opportunities (study abroad trips) were also large scale events and programs I managed. Budget oversight, marketing, outreach and strategic planning for the Center, and supervision of professional staff and student leaders were additional focuses.
