program tracks

Leadership

The Leadership Track is about vision and inspiring others to think and work differently. Examples of leadership can be seen in every session at convention, but in the Leadership Track it is on stage and under the spotlight. Sessions address how to lead by cultivating the best in oneself and in others, and how to lead an organization through a new initiative or institutional challenge.

All convention activities will take place at the Sheraton Philadelphia City Center unless otherwise noted.
