Subject: 3-day leadership workshop for environmental researchers and practitioners
The Institute on the Environment at the University of Minnesota is excited to announce a 3-day leadership workshop taught by Peter Redstone and Martin Bloxham of Barefoot Consulting on Aug. 30-Sept. 1, 2016. Many of you may know Peter and Martin for their excellent work in trainings to leading NGO groups. They have developed a scientific leadership course open to any applicant in the UK, and now they’re bringing that course to the US care of the Institute on the Environment.
The course is designed to provide practical tools to increase the impact and effectiveness of environmental researchers and practitioners. Participants will learn how to engage new partners in their work, be more strategic in the environmental engagement and research that they pursue, and be more effective in influencing others in a collaborative and interactive way. The course is directed to established professionals seeking to enhance their work on solutions to environmental dilemmas and build their network with other leaders.
I’d be grateful if you would please forward this announcement to anyone you think might benefit from leadership training. The application is simple and online http://environment.umn.edu/csl-workshop/. 15 seats are available to individuals from any organization within the US and Canada.
Thank you again for helping us to pass this opportunity along to potential participants.
Sincerely,
avonna starck <star0333@umn.edu>
