Category: Leadership Roundtable

The inaugural CSSP Leadership Roundtable is scheduled on Monday Monday, March 22 from 10 - 11:30 am ET and Tuesday, March 23 from 11 am - 12:30 pm ET, this two module virtual intersession program was developed as a way for rising leaders, or those considering leadership positions within their society, to gain advance access to critical information that will be beneficial during their terms in office. 

This two module intersession program, a way for rising leaders, or those considering leadership positions within their society, to gain advance access to critical information that will be beneficial during their terms in office, in March prompted us to offer this program again. An extension of the CSSP Chat series, the CSSP Leadership Roundtable (PDF) will create a "community of practice" for all participants. Born of the Primer sessions offered prior to the start of our in person CSSP Workshops, the Leadership Roundtable is an opportunity for newly elected officers of scientific societies to discover some of the answers to their burning "what now?" questions.

In addition to those already elected to leadership roles, this will also be an opportunity for society Board members who are considering leadership roles in their organizations to learn the value of taking the step to run for a Board officer position.

Some of the topics that have been discussed include:

  • What are the most important skills to bring to a leadership role?
  • What are the key elements to governing a non-profit society?
  • What legacy would you like to leave with your society when your term in office ends (planning for this in advance will make it easier to achieve that goal)?
  • As you prepare to begin your leadership role, what is your greatest worry?

This session, open to all.
