This Leadership Academy will inspire early childhood program administrators—directors, coordinators, and family child care owner/operators—to consider the future of their programs and provide them with the skills and tools to motivate others. Leadership requires “forward, big picture thinking” which can be challenging when you are putting out the daily fires that overwhelm you. These refreshing training sessions will encourage you to reflect on your program and consider new ways to lead. Connect with other leaders to learn from their experiences and share what is working for you.
