“Talking the talk: Persuasive communication for productive initiative and leadership in academic libraries”


Are you looking for ways to *think/talk about* leadership and management concepts in order to "lead from the middle," move up the ladder, or take a higher-level position in a new organization? 
 
How can we learn about and integrate concepts like vision, organizational structure, and institutional alignment into our view of the day-to-day concrete functioning of the library? How do we activate these ideas in "elevator speeches," letters of application, or in strategies for indirect influence in the workplace? Panelists will provide a brief introduction to issues and key ideas that have emerged from their experience and/or from their research, providing the foundation for a subsequent, interactive moderated discussion forum.
 
Panelists:

  • Robert Farrell, Associate Professor, Coordinator of Information Literacy and Assessment, Lehman College (CUNY)
  • Dr. Debbie Rabina, Professor, Pratt Institute School of Information
  • Barbara Rockenbach, Interim Associate University Librarian for Collections and Services, Columbia University
  • Dr. Michael Stoller, Associate Dean, Collections & Research Services, New York University
A co-sponsored event of the Management & Leadership Discussion Group, the New Librarians’ Discussion Group, and the Mentoring Program of ACRL/NY.
