Thank you to the LILC Committee! 

 

 

 

SCLA SSD sponsored two informative programs for LILC attendees:

Visionary Leadership
Speaker: Terry Morris/T. Seleda Consulting
The dynamic changes in the progressive advancement and the environment today dictate that leaders engage their team members to accomplish the organization’s vision. To accomplish this, the leaders need to have the ability to inspire and motivate those around them to become enthusiastic followers who are committed to achieving the Libraries Vision.This workshop will help participants identify the characteristics of visionary leaders. They will examine how leaders can lose their vision and develop strategies for maintaining visionary leadership with their staff. Participants will also learn how to tap into each staff member’s greatest potential to enable them to become strong partners in the development of their library.
