2021 Webinars
We are returning with a new webinar series to help you transition out of a long year of pandemic. For eight consecutive Tuesday mornings, a CGU faculty expert will share how you can develop your leadership skills to motivate yourself and inspire others. Backed by current research and best practices, our experts will provide the big picture as well as practical examples, and you will have a chance to share your thoughts during a Q&A session.
