Introduction

LEAP logoThe Leadership Education for Advancement and Promotion (LEAP) program began at 抖阴旅行射 Boulder in 2001, funded by a听$3.5 million Institutional Transformation Grant funded by the National Science Foundation and $900,000 in campus support. The following seven years were an effort to strike a balance between research, workshops, and events with the goal to recruit and retain 抖阴旅行射 Boulder faculty.

With support from听Chancellor Phil DiStefano, LEAP has become institutional mainstay for early career faculty at 抖阴旅行射 Boulder, and its programming is overseen and managed by听the听Office of Faculty Affairs.听

LEAP Introductory Leadership Workshop

This two-day, skills-based workshop for pre-tenured faculty (assistant professors) includes sessions on time management,听career development, and cultivating leadership skills presented by tenured faculty, administrators, and professional staff.听The workshop is intended听to provide participants with a greater understanding of the structure and processes of the campus, and to connect participants with the broader campus community.听Working together over the course of the two-day workshop, participants will have an opportunity to meet colleagues from across the campus and realize that they are not "alone"听in navigating the tenure path.

LEAP offers the听Introductory Leadership Workshop twice a year:

  • Early January, before the beginning of the spring semester
  • Mid-May, after the end of the academic year
