It's Never Too Early To Lead” : Early Career Professionals and the Experience of Leadership - Facilitated by Krystal Clark, M.Ed.

For a variety of reasons, early career professionals are often not looked to as leaders within their organization. This could be due to the perception of having a lack of institutional or industry knowledge, a lack of experience in the field, or the view that younger professionals are not ready to serve in leadership roles. Effective organizations understand the importance of cultivating a leadership culture that emphasizes the importance of everyone being able to lead from every seat. Investing in the leadership development of early career professionals is beneficial for the individual, the organization, and the field. A professional's leadership development should be a partnership between the individual and the organization. Let's dig into doing your part. This workshop will engage participants in the process of designing their leadership brand. Early career professionals have to get ready and stay ready for opportunities to lead. We will explore how you can use your leadership identity and your tools of influence to lead at work.

Developing Successful Collaborations - Facilitated by Dr. Andrew Barnard

One of the most important things you can do as an early career acoustician is build your network. This workshop will address how to build relationships across sectors, such as industry-academia, government-academia, and government-industry. Tools from the entrepreneurship community will be introduced as ways to visualize how and why these relationships flourish, or sour. We will discuss the business model canvas and the mission model canvas and how it relates to building broad partnerships. Tips and tricks to building these relationships will be presented along with examples of past partnerships that have succeeded and failed. Hands-on activities will allow participants to practice techniques with participants from different sectors.

Handling and Giving Feedback - Facilitated by Dr. Subha Maruvada

During the workshop, participants will learn how to: identify personal triggers when receiving feedback, see feedback “at actual size”, cultivate a growth identity and build confidence, and successfully navigate a conversation that involves feedback.
