Getting Started on Your Complex Challenge: Strategic Doing
When: March 18 & 31, 2022 (Virtual)
Every department - every institution! - seems to have a complex problem that people want to fix, but aren't really sure how to get started. Eventually, everyone just stops talking about it.
This workshop gives you a foothold that gets you past talking and into taking action: Strategic Doing fueled by entrepreneurially minded colleagues.
In just one year, transform your teaching, research, or service.
Great faculty development paths inspire great careers. As a faculty member committed to lifelong learning, you're probably eager to add abilities, increase your effectiveness, and amplify your impact on your community, your career, your students, and your institution.
Engineering Unleashed Faculty Development National Workshops deliver actionable, adaptable strategies and resources that empower you to create long-lasting value with the entrepreneurial mindset (EM). You’ll receive expert facilitation and guidance in your workshop while collaborating with faculty from across the nation. Over the span of a year, you'll then work to bring a project to life on your campus with input and guidance from coaches and fellow participants. Let's get started!
2021 Workshops are virtual/online. The 2022 Integrating Curriculum with the Entrepreneurial Mindset 2.0 workshop will be in person.
Cancellation Policy: If a participant cancels within 30 days of a workshop, the Kern Family Foundation may invoice the institution for a $150 cancelation fee to cover materials and other unrecoverable costs.
