About
At Wiley University, we recognize that leadership isn't just a title or a position—it's a journey of personal and collective growth that has the power to shape our institution and the world around us. That's why we've established University Leadership Initiatives.
Why We Do the Work

University Leadership Initiatives are committed to empowering individuals at all levels of the university community to unlock their leadership potential, cultivate essential skills, and drive positive change in their spheres of influence. Through tailored Initiatives, workshops, and events, we aim to inspire, educate, and equip our stakeholders to lead with integrity, compassion, and innovation.

What We Offer

  • Comprehensive Leadership Development: Our department offers a diverse range of leadership development Initiatives designed to meet the unique needs and interests of faculty, staff, and students. From workshops and seminars to experiential learning opportunities and mentorship Initiatives, we provide resources and support to help individuals thrive as leaders in their academic, professional, and personal lives.

  • Strategic Planning and Consultation: University Leadership Initiatives partners with academic and administrative units across the university to develop and implement strategic leadership initiatives aligned with institutional goals and priorities. Whether it's designing a leadership curriculum, facilitating team-building exercises, or conducting needs assessments, our team provides expert guidance and support to help departments and Initiatives achieve their leadership development objectives.

  • Community Engagement and Networking: We believe in the power of community to drive meaningful change. That's why University Leadership Initiatives organizes a variety of networking events, roundtable discussions, and collaborative projects to foster connections and promote collaboration among leaders from diverse backgrounds and disciplines. By creating opportunities for dialogue, exchange, and collaboration, we aim to build a stronger, more cohesive university community.

  • Our vision for University Leadership Initiatives is one of empowerment, innovation, and impact. We envision a future where every member of the Wiley University community is equipped with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to lead with purpose and make a positive difference in the world.
