Emerging Leaders Academy
Curriculum
The ELA curriculum is designed to help participants increase their effectiveness as public servants and build skills to prepare for leadership positions. Our goal is to offer tools that can be used immediately and that will remain relevant over time. Faculty members engage participants in discussions of the competencies they need to succeed in their workplaces today and in the future and respond by making adjustments to the content as necessary. Curriculum topic areas include:
- Understanding One’s Strengths
- Teamwork in Organizations
- Knowledge Transfer
- Dynamics of Conflict
- Communication Skills
- Leadership and Learning Organizations
- Generations in the Workplace
- Shaping Organizational Culture
- Decision Making
- Ethics
- Business Etiquette
- Great Texts, Great Teachers
In addition, participants will be guided through the processes of:
- Developing a Skills and Competencies Portfolio,
- Shadowing a Mentor, and
- Creating an Individual Development Plan.
We continue to hear from past ELA participants that these components have been invaluable in helping them identify ways they can better contribute to their organizations while also planning for their own career development.
