LESLIE'S CLASSES:
- Let's Talk about Leadership: What is leadership? What is the role of a leader? Are leading and managing the same? Is there a “best” leadership style? This class will introduce leadership concepts and vocabulary that will be referenced in subsequent sessions.
- From Rookies to Lifers: Membership recruitment and retention that focuses on organizational culture,
leadership, collaborative processes, and helping new members become successful
contributors to the chorus. - (Real) Team-Work Makes the Dream-Work!: Teams aren’t simply committees with a different label. And effective music,
management, leadership, and cross-functional teams don’t happen by accident. How do
leaders create and sustain intentionally effective teams? - Why Plan?: We are so often focused on doing that we neglect the dreaming, thinking, & planning
part that is essential to directing our activities and resources. This class introduces some
new ways of thinking about planning from a leadership perspective.
