Who should attend
This institute is designed for individuals who are in a managerial or new leadership position in an international business division or office and who wish to develop their leadership skills in their role.
Key areas will be examined, including:
- leadership – self-assessment and skills assessment;
- the key elements and challenges of the role;
- the role of your institution’s international affairs office or division;
- reporting structures, financial models, recruitment strategies and organizational structures;
- International projects, programs and institutions – opportunities and challenges, access to funding agencies;
- human resource management practices and approaches; and
- risk management in international projects;
The specific and varied stories shared by the senior Deans/Directors of International provided a long-term picture of the necessary foundation needed for international education start-up operations, right through to the bumps, bruises and huge successes experienced as a result of comprehensive internationalization mandates. The conversations were compelling and the strong mentor/mentee relationships continue to support emerging leaders across Canada’s college sector.
