Foster Leadership and Management Practices

We believe that everyone is a leader in their own area. Leadership grounded in strong values builds the capacity of staff and faculty to contribute and flourish in the university community. We seek to engage and encourage leadership at all levels in the university.

What have we accomplished?

We created the Managing at UBC program. The program is designed to support new managers during their first year at the university, recognizing their responsibilities in fostering a positive and sustainable workplace environment for employees in their units.

We support our staff involved in the Academic Leadership Development Program (ALDP) and the Community Leadership Program (CLP).

We have enhanced the Academic Leadership Development Program to fully address the university’s strategic plan, Place & Promise, as well as our academic priorities and associated budget framework.

What are we doing?

We are working to:

• The Integration Team is assisting faculties and departments to develop annual plans based on actions they will take to implement Place & Promise.
• Build a five-year business plan for UBC Coaching Services.
