In adult education, individuals are often on career paths that lead directly from the instructional classroom to the administrative conference room without the benefit of essential leadership development. You may have been thrust into a leadership role at the state or local level, or have those aspirations. If so, you need a foundational knowledge of core skills to prepare you to LEAD.
